Hi > I wondered if PHP allowed for Unicode character sets (such as by using > the UTF-8 standard)? Quick answer: Yes Longer Answer: Yes but you have to be a little careful as not all parts and extensions of php support UTF-8 encoding, or require you to specify UTF-8. PHP itself can be set to use UTF-8 for its output, obviously the headers of your page need to be set appropriately.
