Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-12 09:33:28] tony2001@php.net Try to build PHP using official sources and the latest release. Please tell us the version of MySQL you're using. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-12 07:17:14] georg@php.net can't repeat (tested with MySQL 4.1 and 5.0): <?php $connect=mysql_connect("localhost","phptest","php"); $select=mysql_select_db("test",$connect); /* create test table */ mysql_query("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS test_35183"); mysql_query("CREATE TABLE test_35183 (a varchar(20) character set utf8)"); /* set client connection to utf8 */ mysql_query("SET NAMES utf8"); $expected = "&#22235;&#22823;&#30342;&#31354;"; $query="insert into test1 values ('$expected')"; $result=mysql_query($query); if (($result=mysql_query("select a from test_35183"))) { $row=mysql_fetch_row($result); printf("Expected: %s Returned: %s\n", $expected, $row[0]); } mysql_query("DROP TABLE test_35183"); mysql_free_result($result); mysql_close(); ?> Output: Expected: &#22235;&#22823;&#30342;&#31354; Returned: &#22235;&#22823;&#30342;&#31354; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-12 02:42:52] lzx21cn at 21cn dot com The problem maybe "Data truncation" When php write to mysql but I do not know resolve it ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-12 02:03:39] lzx21cn at 21cn dot com do the same without PHP (using the console interface of MySQL in gnome-terminal ----------------------------------------------------------- drop table test1; create table test1(id int,name char(4)); insert into test1 values(1,'皆大欢喜'); insert into test1 values(2,'四大皆空'); select * from test1; id | name 1 | 皆大欢喜 2 | 四大皆空 ------------------------------------------- the reslut is good! ------------------------------------------------- Why do I think it's a problem of PHP, not MySQL 1st. read/write by console vs. by php by console: the result is right by php : the result is wrong,write four Chinese character and read only one chinese character back,and other character lost. 2nd. read Mysql by java vs. by php (creat record by console) by java: the result is right by php : the result is ? at field 'name' -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-11 18:24:31] tony2001@php.net Try to do the same without PHP (using the console interface of MySQL) and see if it works this way. If it does, put the code somewhere in the Net and paste the link here, so the Unicode data won't be corrupted by the bug system. Also add the expected and actual results, I doubt I can guess them myself. And try to explain why do you think it's a problem of PHP, not MySQL or something else (I'd be glad if you try to use something close to English to do that). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
