Hello, I do have a little tiny problem with the character set. If I try to insert a word containing an german umlaut by a php-script, Oracle strips the seventh bit. I.e. "ä" becomes a "d". In PHP the SQL statement is written correctly. Facts: 1. I use Oracle 8i. The DB is made with the we8iso8859p1 option. 2. The NLS_LANG is set to GERMAN_GERMANY.WE8ISO8859P1 3. SQLPLUS works fine. What else could be wrong? If somebody has experience please answer. Stefan
