Hi All,

thanks for excellent ideas I'll start working on them right now (in a slow sunday night way). Meanwhile, I've discovered that when I do this on dev machine:

show variables like "%character%";
show variables like "%collation%";

I get this:

character_set_client    utf8
character_set_connection    utf8
character_set_database    utf8
character_set_filesystem    binary
character_set_results    utf8
character_set_server    utf8
character_set_system    utf8
character_sets_dir    /usr/share/mysql/charsets/
----------
collation_connection    utf8_general_ci
collation_database    utf8_general_ci
collation_server    utf8_general_ci

[download]

And on my staging machine is this:

character_set_client    utf8
character_set_connection    utf8
character_set_database    latin1
character_set_filesystem    binary
character_set_results    utf8
character_set_server    utf8
character_set_system    utf8
character_sets_dir    /usr/share/mysql/charsets/
------------------
collation_connection    utf8_general_ci
collation_database    latin1_swedish_ci
collation_server    utf8_general_ci

[download]

That cannot be good. I'll play during the night and post my results in the morning.

Thanks a lot, Stepamil
