Hi list, I get data from an HTML page that has charset UTF-8 (meta-element) and the table has $encoding=mysql_client_encoding(...). Now I do a $result = mysql_query(iconv("UTF-8", $encoding, $sql), $db_handle); to change encoding of user data. $sql is the complete SQL query. Might there be any problem that this code is not aware of? (I know that I implicitly assume that the code can be converted from utf8 to $encoding which is ISO-8859-1 for the database used. MySQL has Version 4.0.24) tia, Oliver
