That is an html entity and is not how it is stored. How that entity gets displayed depends entirely on what encoding you have set for the page. The japanese characters (charset ISO-2022-JP) to use to display the phrase for 'Contents' is: ^[$B$3$s$F$s$D^[(B (^[ == escape character) I can store those exact characters (with the proper escape character) in a database without a problem Then I haven't a clue as to why its stored that way, or its just the way the command line displays the content.

Using postgresql on a database setup for unicode storage, Im getting -> test=# select topic_title from forum_topics order by topic_time desc limit 1 offset 4;

                           topic_title
