Hi, I installed phpbb forum application on commercial server (brinkster.com) with mySql as database. You can see the application here: http://www.adeo.co.il/forum/ When i try to insert English characters everythink works fine but when i try to insert Hebrew (my local language) characters weird signs appear (you can see in the link above). When i look inside the Db the hebrew data is also seen as weird characters. What might cause this? doesn't php and mySql use unicode? How can i fix this?
