hi all

since nearly 2 days i fight with mssql and utf-8 as i need to store and
retrieve arabic characters.

i tried the com approach

http://groups.google.com/group/mailing.www.php-dev/browse_thread/thread/69f90dc978763e99/d61aa0bd48de23f0?lnk=st&q=php+mssql+utf-8&rnum=7#d61aa0bd48de23f0

i tried as well the odbtp library, odbc and obviously the mssql native
extension.. but i never succeded so far to store utf-8 data in the
mssql server (column type nvarchar). if anybody has an idea, an
approach or thinks he knows what i might have done wrong.. it is all
highly appreciated.

ou yes the content type is specified as follows in the document

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

cheers ralphie
