Working with UTF-8 in PHP, MySQL and Apache
Wednesday, September 15, 2010 | En Español
As I have previously posted in this website, I believe it is a good idea to standardize in one character encoding across all parts of a system, and as my preferred character encoding is UTF-8, when I create a PHP system I check the following things:
- That the browser receives and interprets the output of my PHP scripts as UTF-8.
- That the (X)HTML forms accept UTF-8.
- That PHP treats the data received from a MySQL database as UTF-8.
