Hi!
I'm working on a site where i store japanese and english text in a MySQL database. The database charset is latin1 and i have no problem to save the japanese text in it.
But my first question is:
Should it be any problems to store japanese text in a latin1 database? Could anything go wrong?
Is there any problem using japanese text in variables in php?
If i have to sort the japanese data in the database, how do i do that? I think the databse will sort it as it should do if it was an eglish text?
I'm pretty sure that i will work with more multi-byte langauges than only japanese. So is it possible to use the php multi-byte funtions fore every multi-byte language?
Thanks
Jon
