Hi,
UTF-8 is 8 bit code.
Unicode ist 16 and it includes all the chars we know today over all the
world.
If you want to write arabic , ascii, german, French and etc... in your db.
Use unicode. the UTF-8 do not include all these chars in one
see this for more information about :
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/csettables.html
Attention that you can set the encoding in the DB, java as well as the
brwoser.
and all must fit together for good results.
Sako.
