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".

Thanks for the heads up!
