Hi, I have a mysql database, which the users can insert comments. As the users can be from different countries, with different character encoding, the mysql table can contain various special characters. How can I be sure to display these comments properly? I've found the mb_convert_encoding, and for some characters it works okay, but there are some really special characters which displayed as a '?'. Does anybody know some workarounds? Thanks, SanTa
