Hi,

How to search tamil fonts and retrieve data from mysql and show the result using php?

A: 

Tamil characters are part of the Unicode spec and have been supported for years. Have you tried making a php page which takes Tamil input and stores it into the database?

If it didn't work, post your code.

You should use the unicode character setup (utf8) to support multiple languages in mysql. Take a look at the example below.

U need to use UTF-8 as the encording for your MySQL DB. Then later u can retreive and store data to MySQL database as usual.

for input in Tamil unicode I'd suggest you to try following resources

http://www.google.com/transliterate/tamil

or you can use softwares such as NHM Writer or E-kalappai to input in UTF-8 tamil.
