Things like é changed could be changed back, but Indic characters, when corrected, revert to the mangled state. For example: http://www.murky.org/blg/back-in-delhi/ I had some bengali on this page, this worked well - but has now been replaced by ????? I can demonstrate that it was working, as at a later date I exported my site over to wordpress.com as a backup http://murky.wordpress.com/2006/08/13/back-in-delhi/ --- and as you can see, the bengali is visible here, (though not semantically correct as I had to be cunning with the coding due to a bug in winxp or mozilla) I have tried to fix this at murky.org - but every time I do, it's replaced by ???? again - obviously quite frustrating. The vast majority of the site is in English, but I do want to be able to show non-english characters from time to time. My charset is utf8: define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8'); define('DB_COLLATE', ''); " defect (bug) closed normal General normal invalid
