Re: Special characters

Fernando, I don't mean you to change the set of your db. I use mysql, it has char(), and I store utf-8 encoded strings. Every utf8 encoded string is made of bytes and every byte can be entered. I don't want to tell that this will work in your case but it won't hurt. iconv extension is good to transform you iso-8859-1 strings to utf8. after retrieving from db just converted them fron unicode.
