I have nearly completed the task of overhauling my web app to be properly "UTF-8 aware". I have found, though, that if I set the connection character set to utf8 using mysqli_set_charset, the result is that output appears incorrectly (indeed it appears as though the page's character encoding had been misidentified), whereas if I do not s...
