MySQL doesn't yet support the Unicode features directly, and it is supported in full feldged way in its 4.1 version.

This is great interest to me. Currently we are using Unicode in mySQL too, but our soplution is to store everything in UTF-8 in the database, using either text or blob for large fileds. This seems to work fine. Is this still goihng to work fine when we get full Unicode support in 4.1, and is there some better way of doing this that I dont know about ?

cheers,
