> 1.) Saving strings to a database One thing I always forget to remember is to send tge "SET NAMES utf8" command to MySQL after making a connection. This will save you 1000 headaches if you're working with non-latin characters. I can't count the number of times I've thrown htmlentities, htmlspecialchars, utf8_encode/decode/, stripslashes, etc, etc around trying to figure out why those É's aren't being saved or read properly. I imagine this might fall into the category of "best practice". Marc -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
