[DB_DataObject] Extended chars come back as ? when selected

I have a table that looks like this: CREATE TABLE card ( [... bunch of fields ...] art varchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci default NULL PRIMARY KEY (cardno) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci; A value in the "art" field is often a name that contains an "é" character. It appears fine in phpMyAdmin and other tools, but when using DBDO, I get a "?" symbol outputted to the page: Card: QUERY: SELECT * FROM card ORDER BY cardno Card: query: QUERY DONE IN 0.0053830146789551 seconds Card: find: CHECK autofetchd Card: find: DONE Card: FETCH: a:21:{[...] s:12:"Michel Gagn�";s:8:"extended";s:0:"";} This is the case in both MySQL 4 and 5 using mysqli, using utf8_general_ci or latin1_general_ci. The charset of the web page is utf-8. ...however, now I'm trying the select from the terminal and getting the very same thing back. mysql> select art from card where cardno = 98; +--------------+

| art          |

+--------------+ | Michel Gagn? | +--------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) So clearly this isn't a DBDO problem at all, but um... maybe someone has an answer anyway? -josh
