FMPro & mySQL with UTF8 Character Sets

Hallo everybody,

I have one MySQL database, which is used via web interface (php) and FileMaker.

When I try to add/change records with some of Czech or Serbian characters (like ž š đ č ć ů ů á í ý) using web interface, everything works perfect.

----------------------------------------

Character set of MySQL database:

SET character_set_client = 'latin1';

SET character_set_connection = 'latin1';

SET collation_connection = 'latin1_swedish_ci';

After command “SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'character_set%';” using MySQL_Front or Navicat, program bring to me:

character_set_client utf8

character_set_connection utf8

character_set_database utf8

character_set_results utf8

character_set_server utf8

character_set_system utf8

character_sets_dir /usr/share/mysql/charsets/

And after “SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'collation%';”, Navicat bring to me:

collation_connection utf8_general_ci

collation_database utf8_general_ci

collation_server utf8_general_ci

--------------------------------------------

But, when I try to add/change some records using FileMaker and JDBC (via PDM plugin) or php (via schubec PHPowered plug-in) results are bad.

When I use schubec PHPowered plug-in, my scripting looks like is:

SCPH_PHP_eval("$conn = mysql_connect("server","username","password");" & &

"mysql_select_db("database",$conn);" & &

"$test1 = mysql_query("SET character_set_client = 'latin1'",$conn);" & &

"$test1 = mysql_query("SET character_set_connection = 'latin1'",$conn);" & &

"$test1 = mysql_query("SET collation_connection = 'latin1_swedish_ci'",$conn);" & &

"$result = mysql_query("update mysql query action",$conn) or die(mysql_error()); ")

When I use PDM plugin, my scripting looks like:

-After opening connection:

External("SQL-doSQL";"SET character_set_client = 'latin1';")

External("SQL-doSQL";"SET character_set_connection = 'latin1';")

External("SQL-doSQL";"SET collation_connection = 'latin1_swedish_ci';")

I have another try; set up character setting of connection trough SQL URL:

External("SQL-setURL"; “jdbc:mysql://server/database?characterEncoding=ISO8859_1&connectionCollation=latin1_swedish_ci”)

Every time results are bad, in MySQL database (and through web interface)characters looks wrong.

Does anyone have experience in solving this problem?

TIA
