You mean in your html pages? That wouldn't really work unless you've configured php to handle multi-byte characters. (Maybe not necessary in 4.3.x versions...) Besides, you also need to configure MySQL to handle the Japanese characters. You need to check your configuration/settings in your my.cnf and php.ini. Without any code snippets and environment info, it'll be hard for anybody to help out... - E -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
