Hi!
When I use these characters "àèìòù" in a description and save the product mysql write a "?" instead of the char.
I have this problem on a online server but not on localhost ( win with xammp )
any hint?
I searched and googled, no solution found
Thanks

I can't reproduce your problem, it works fine with 0.7.9RC6. Just make sure to use the UTF-8 UNICODE character set for your database.

What version of OpenCart are you using? What's the URL of your website? What version of PHP and MySQL?

I think is opencart 0.78 , where can I find in the source code?
Php 5.2.5
Apache/2.2.3
mysql 5.0.45

You should use the latest OpenCart 0.7.9RC6 which you can find
here.

I know... but I did a lot of work to use my template and to add a mod ( 2 description for product, 1 short, 1 complete ) and I need to finish it for a client.
There is any significant change regards utf8 and mysql ? in this case I update only the files needed to solve the bug.
Thanks a lot

If you are
using templates correctly, then there should be no issue, except for maybe a few feature updates in certain tpl files that you can manually merge

I think I found the problem, its the fckeditor causing the problem!
Cause I tried to enter in "Code" mode and write my text with èòàùì and it works!
There is some utf8 setting for the editor? Or I just need to upgrade it?
Thanks!
