DataTables server-side processing with user selectable rows example (accents problems)

trollanfer

I had problems with french accents. Table cells containing accents were diseapearing. I checked mysql table, which was latin1 coded. I turned it utf8, but the problem remained. I found a way to have it working : after the initialisation of the sql query in "id.php", simply add [code] mysql_query("SET NAMES UTF8"); [/code]
Hope it helps....

Hello,

After spending hours to find a solution for displaying french accents (and perhaps other languages), i find your post.
Many thanks for that tips!
