Store Chinese Character In Mysql
My site is 90% english, however there are some pages that i need to display in chinese character. In fact, arabic, russia, spanish. In mysql, i try to use collation utf8_general_ci . So when i input the data using phpmyadmin, i type chinese character e.g •Ÿ(lucky) into the record, save it. Unfortunately when i use php to get the data from mysql database and present it on the web, it appear as '?' (question mark). How do i show it on the web correctly ?

Store And Read Chinese Characters
I'm writing a vbscript application that reads UTF-8 XML containing Chinese characters. Any suggestions how to store these characters in MySql 4.0.x ? Do I need to set a special encoding such as Big5 on the database ? Does MySql support storing UTF-8 ? If so what data types / encoding do I need to use ? Are there any special considerations for using MySql/ODBC and ADO to get and put the data.

Chinese/Unicode From Php And Mysql
I searched the forum regarding this problem already and attempted to solve the problem, but fail regardlessly.I entered chinese characters directly into a table column A which has collation utf8_unicode_ci using phpmyadmin. The chinese/unicode characters actually appeared in phpmyadmin's "select * from tableT". However, when I create a php script with a query "select * from tableT", it appears in the form of question marks e.g. ????.Any idea how to resolve this? If I can view the chinese characters in phpmyadmin via the web browser, it shouldn't be a problem to display it in a php file, right? Not sure whether this is a php or a mysql problem.

Chinese Chars OK
I have mysql 5 and php 5.1.2 with chinese chars in utf8 on mysql. Browsing the tables in phpmyadmin shows correct chinese characters. However, a custom php page to display them shows only ??? At the top of my php page I did include: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http:// www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en" dir="ltr"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

Chinese Characters
I install MySQL v4.1.14 in WindowXP as a service. I store all the data in the plain text file and load it into the database. All the data are stored in the database successfully but all the chinese characters become '? Every time I need to set the character set to big5 before I can see the chinese characters in the command line interface. How can I set the big5 as the default character set? Although I can see most of the chinese characters after setting to big5, some of the characters are still in '????' Why this happens? Thirdly, even if I can see the chinese characters in the command line interface, all the chinese characters change back to the '????' again when I use the web browser to see the data. How to fix up this problem?

Importing Chinese Characters
I've got a problem with importing chinese characters into a mysql-table and have read several mailings but didn't find a solution. i have a utf-8 text file that contains chinese characters. the table where i want to import the data using "load data local infile" has collation utf8_unicode_ci. but after the import is done, the chinese characters are converted into so strange characters. to show the chinese symbols in a php-script i use mb_convert_encoding() which shows me the characters properly, but the problem is that i have to order by the col that contains the chinese characters, so the chinese characters mustn't be converted after importing. when i use the form in phpmyadmin to add data it is possible to store the characters properly. is there a way to achieve this by using load data local infile?

Databasing Chinese Content
My company is looking into developing spanish and chinese versions of their website. Building a custom content management system seems to be the best route for this but I'm curious as to MySQL's ability to database chinese (and other non alphabetic languages like arabic and japanese) content.Has anyone dealt with this issue or have a recommendation on another database platform I could use that offers support for this requirement?

Can't Enter Chinese Characters
I have tried to follow instructions online as well as other threads in this forum, so far to no avail. I am using JSP, Java 1.4, MySQL 4.1 and Tomcat 5.5 on Windows XP. 1) I have set my JSPs to use UTF-8 wherever possible. I have a form where I can enter Chinese characters into a form, which hits a servlet, but text always arrives to the servlet garbled. 2) When I try to directly do an INSERT to a column and insert a chinese character, it comes up as ??? mySQL Query browser says "Data truncated to column 'translation' at row 1' ErrorNumber 1265. 3) I have made sure that each table's encoding is UTF-8. Not sure what else to do. I can't find any easy instructions to do this. If you know of one,

Sorting Chinese, Japanese
I have been asked to look into support for sorting non-latin 'alphabets' such as Chinese and Japanese. I already know that MySQL supports UTF-8, though my interest is in finding out how well MySQL support sorting of entries for these writing systems and what supplementary configuration I may need to do.

Displaying Chinese Characters
I am designing a website that needs to be bilingal English/Chinese. I decided to create a MySQL table to hold page contents with a field called language with values en or cn. I have two PHP pages, one queries on all records with en and has a character set "iso-8859-1" the other queries on all records with cn and has a character set "gb2312". I have decided to enter the data using an Access database linked to the MySQL database using MyODBC. When I enter english characters all works fine. when I enter chinese charcters, they initially display fine on my PC as chinese characters, but once the record has been entered these are replaced with ?? symbols. The question marks appear to originate from the MySQL database because they show up in the Access database, the online chinese page and using PHP MyAdmin.

Database Cannot Recognize Chinese / Korean/ Japanese Characters
For some reason, my database can't recognize information submitted in Chinese characters (or any other Asian characters for that matter). I've created a test two variable database for id and name, and I've been told that the "UTF-8 Unicode" recognizes all characters, which doesn't seem to be working. My MySQL recognizes this character set. I inputted the following SQL query: create table test( id int(8 ) collate utf8_ci_as null, name varchar(15) collate utf8_ci_as null ) Am I doing anything wrong? It doesn't support GBK or other character sets.

What Is The Best Way To Store A Date In MySQL DB?
I have a table (contacts) with a list of people I know. It holds info like email address and birthdays. Right now, I have the birthday saved across three fields- day, month, and year. The day and month fields hold values like '02' and the year field holds a four-digit number, like '2007'. I know MySQL has a 'DATE' field type, and I would feel that is probably the best way to store the information I have. My question is this: I have some PHP code that checks to see if any of my contacts has a birthday today (as seen below) $today = date("d/m"); $query = "SELECT * FROM `contacts` WHERE CONCAT(DAY,'/',MONTH) = '".$today."'"; How could I do this if I stored the date in a single, YYYYMMDD field?

Using A Foreign Character Set In MYSQL
I am working with MySQL 4.0. I have a requirement to create a data-driven Web page to display Chinese text from a MySQL table. I'm completely new to this, can someone tell me exactly what I need to do to make this happen? 1. For example, how do I insert the Chinese text from my source (a Word doc) into a MySQL table without corrupting it? When I try copying and pasting it into the mysql client command-line, the data gets trashed. 2. Once it's in, how do I get it back out into my application without corrupting it? I'm using PHP 4.3 for the Web site. 3. If I need to make changes to the data from the command-line client, how can I do it, especially if the query involves using a Chinese-language string? For example, "update langdata set menutitle='SOME_MENU_TITLE_IN_CHINESE' where menutitle='SOME_OLD_MENU_TITLE_IN_CHINESE'" Looked at the online manual but am sorry to say it didn't really help much. I tried starting the server with --character-set=big5 but it didn't seem to make much difference.

Can MySQL Support UTF-8 Character Set
I am developing an web application which needs to support all kinds of languages, like english, european character set, and other asian character set. Therefore, UTF-8 can include all those characters. But I am using MySQL4 as my application back-end database. MySQL4 doesn't support UTF-8 character set. How can I do it? Is there any possible way that MqSQL can support UTF-8?

How To Set Similar Character Set In Ad And Mysql
I am connecting users from AD to Sun Identity Manager (IDM), and the IDM uses MySQL. The strange thing is that Norwegian characters keep showing up as ? or other strange characters like a Y with double line over or A with ~ on top and some other character next to it... We have set the character set to utf8 and collation to utf8_bin, but we get the same strange characters as we are when running latin1. AD is running a character set called ISO-10646 (similar til unicode), and our theory is that it might be a conflict with the character sets between the different resources. Anyone had similiar problems?
