I need to revoke most of my post below. What I found out afterwards is this:
1. if you do not use mysql_set_char mysql will NOT do any translations and thus store a
utf8-character-byte as is. If you then retrieve this byte from the db and output it in a utf8 page
it will show just fine BUT if other apps query this byte (expecting to find a latin1 byte) they will
go wrong.
2. the 'bug' mentioned before only occurs if you use a ucase or lcase function in your
statement (like: latin1_col = ucase('utf8 string')
Hope this helps, Ronald
