Re: PostgreSQL encoding and PHP

I don't know the exact asnwer (perhaps I've not clearly understood what you
want), but:

there is several PHP extensions to deal with converting files between
various coded character sets and surface encodings :
1. iconv http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.iconv.php
2. recode http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.recode.php
3. multibyte http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mbstring.php

you can also set your client encoding in PHP with pg_set_client_encoding()
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pg-set-client-encoding.php

and maybe you can pass some encoding information in the options argument
during connection. I'm not sure about this one.

hope this helps,
