| fotoflo | when im printing utf-8 stuff, and i get question marks back, instead of a mix of crazy chars, what does that mean? |
| octagon | probably that whatever you're printing through is protecting you from unsupported characters by printing ? maybe just a guess |
| fotoflo | what do you mean, printing through? |
| octagon | like the code that is actually printing to your terminal may be aware of the terminal capabilities like when you open a binary file in vi for example |
| fotoflo | its coming from MySQL through perl to HTML |

| fotoflo | yeah |
| octagon | it looks like each ? is 2 chinese characters (there are 12 chinese characters in the string, right?) |
| fotoflo | no |
| octagon | 6? |

| octagon | i mean in the actual chinese string that you wrote there i don't know chinese |

| octagon | how many chinese characters are there actually? cause it looks like you have 2 characters repeated 6 times, making 12 total |
| fotoflo | thats the data its not uniform |
| octagon | oh how do you declare the columns in your schema? as varchar? |
| fotoflo | tinytext utf8 |
| octagon | what does that mean? |
| fotoflo | they look fine in phpmyadmin |
| octagon | how many characters are in a tinytext? |
| fotoflo | tinytext 256 |
