in thread UTF8 driving me up the wall again!

Hi,

Mmm ok - its looking like a phpmyadmin issue :( I just added a test record from the admin panel, and its working fine. As soon as I try and edit it from phpmyadmin, for example "ábc ítest" then it comes up all broken when viewing the data... yet it works fine elsewhere. I'll get my host to take a look at phpmyadmin, as its looking like its a configuration error there somewhere (its a system resource, so I don't have access to edit the settings). I wish I'd realized this 3 hours ago - would have saved myself a lot of stress :s

Thanks for the replies though guys :)

Andy
