Encoding - Database Connections
Permalink
Hi,
I've been running into alot of problems with Character encoding, it seems to be database related, and I've got a sneaking suspicions it's not the table collates (which are all set to UTF8). But it's the connection to the databases.
Do any of you know an easy way to make sure the connections made to the database in Concrete5 (5.6.4) are in UTF8 (Also, I'm running php 5.3.3, which has some issues with connections;http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4361459/php-pdo-charset-set-name... Any help would be appreciated;
