characters are mangled up

sonaht · 09-14-2004, 08:03 AM

I am trying to make it work to no avail...

I am running Fedora Core 2, with apache and php and mysql

When i create a (php) page reading data from mysql (the data are written in greek) I see the data in greek but when I echo something through php I see all characters mangled up.

There is something I have to do but what ?

Thanks in advance

i was searching the same problem....
You have to recompile using "--default-character-set=greek"
Did you find any other solution??

Also, you may look here:

Thanks for that,

recompiling it saved the day.... but the next a complete disk failure ruined it again!!!

I was busy with my job to search again but in a couple of weeks i'll be on again

thanks

Also try to define to your apache "AddDefaultCharSet XXXXXXXXXXX" your LanguageCharSet
