Problem with the unicode signs

[bpalczewski]

Ciao !!!

I'm working on the project that requires multi-lingual database ... I
have never done it before and i have problem to configure mysql server
and create databases which will allow me to store data in different
languages, which includes e.g. hebrew or arabic ...
I will be very gratefull if someone send me a dumped database with a
table containing couple of records (or more) of data in unicode - at
least i will have a starting point to find out what's wrong with my
project.

greetings

Is it your DB wich needs to be multi-lingual or your data..?

For the first case, MySQL is ready (more or less according to the
version in use); have a look at
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/localisation.html

For the second case, think deeply about your DB structure, then have a
look on http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/charset.html

I'm not shure that will help you. What you need is understanding how
things work and some pratical SQL statements (users comments and
querries on http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/ are helpfull)
