Hi,
I'm on a Win2000 SP4 using IIS5, PHP4 (CGI-version) and MySQL
My problem is this: Instead of getting nicely formatted danish
characters when I use PHP to retrieve data from MySQL, all I get is a
'}'-character.
If I access the database through a DOS promt, everything looks just
like it should. All characters are formatted correctly.
Executing "print('ÆØÅ ')" works fine too, all characters come out
nicely.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
/lmss

The characters above are no danish characters... Some my guess whould
be that when you get corrrect output on a windows machine but not in a
browser, you are using different character encodings... Most probably on
the windows machine it will be some windwos-125x encoding, and the
default iso-8859-1 encoding in the browser...

I'm having a bit of trouble understanding the purpose of escaping

Firstly, the manual states that:
"Strictly speaking, MySQL requires only that backslash and the quote
character used to quote the string in the query be escaped. This
function quotes the other characters to make them easier...
