It's not*just* that PHP isn't handling utf8 perfectly. Encoding between database and server is a rather complex issue, you're dealing with: * database encoding * database connection encoding * php internal encoding * output encoding Messing up just *one* of these will give bad output - so you need to make sure that all of them are aligned.
And not simply assume that because everything is SET to UTF8 - that is actually what is being handled :( The holes in the process such as with MySQL/PDO need to be well documented, which is what tikiwiki are working through now, but should be in the PHP documentation?
