Hi...not sure if this is the right group for this posting, but i'm
don't know where else to post. I've got a simple problem...I have a
linux box running apache 2.0 and php5. I'm trying to use the mssql
functions in php to retreive data from a mssql server 2k. I'm pulling
data from the customers table in the northwind db and i'm getting
strange characters instead of special characters. Below is a sample
output:

(where the quotes are i get a question mark)
What I'm getting:

ALFKI - Alfreds Futterkiste - Maria Anders
ANATR - Ana Trujillo Emparedados y helados - Ana Trujillo
ANTON - Antonio Moreno Taquer?a - Antonio Moreno
AROUT - Around the Horn - Thomas Hardy
BERGS - Berglunds snabbk?p - Christina Berglund


What I should get:

ALFKI - Alfreds Futterkiste - Maria Anders
ANATR - Ana Trujillo Emparedados y helados - Ana Trujillo
ANTON - Antonio Moreno Taquería - Antonio Moreno
AROUT - Around the Horn - Thomas Hardy
BERGS - Berglunds snabbköp - Christina Berglund
