UTF-8 Sampler

Saved by uncleflo on June 23rd, 2019.

UTF-8 is an ASCII-preserving encoding method for Unicode (ISO 10646), the Universal Character Set (UCS). The UCS encodes most of the world's writing systems in a single character set, allowing you to mix languages and scripts within a document without needing any tricks for switching character sets. This web page is encoded directly in UTF-8. This, however, is a Web page, which started out as a kind of stress test for UTF-8 support in Web browsers, which was spotty when this page was first created in the 1990s but which has become standard in all modern browsers. The problem now is mainly the fonts and the browser's (or font's) support for the nonzero Unicode planes (as in, e.g., the Braille
and Gothic examples below). And to some extent the rendition of combining sequences, right-to-left rendition (Arabic,
Hebrew), and so on. The subtitle above shows currency symbols of many lands. If they don't appear as blobs, we're off to a good start!

UTF-8 all the way through

I'm setting up a new server, and want to support UTF-8 fully in my web application. I have tried in the past on existing servers and always seem to end up having to fall back to ISO-8859-1. Where exactly do I need to set the encoding/charsets? I'm aware that I need to configure Apache, MySQL and PHP to do this - is there some standard checklist I can follow, or perhaps troubleshoot where the mismatches occur? This is for a new Linux server, running MySQL 5, PHP 5 and Apache 2.

How to setup your PHP site to use UTF8

Saved by uncleflo on June 27th, 2017.

According to Google (via: DF), UTF8 is now the most popular character set on the web! I wonder how much this is down to sensible defaults in web authoring tools, rather than a conscious shift in mindset. It's a long time since I looked at it, but as far as I can remember Dreamweaver defaults to UTF8 for new web pages, so a lot of beginning web designers are probably building Unicode sites without even realising it. I think there are a couple of reasons that many web designers and developers still aren't using Unicode across the board.

Brian’s 10 Rules for how to write cross-platform code

https://www.backblaze.com/blog/10-rules-for-how-to-write-cross-platform-code/

Saved by uncleflo on July 19th, 2016.

I’ve had a lot of success in my 20 year software engineering career with developing cross platform ‘C’ and ‘C++’ code. At Backblaze, we just released the Mac beta version of our online backup service, so I thought it an apt time to discuss my 10 rules for writing cross-platform code. We develop an online backup product where a small desktop component (running on either Windows or Macintosh) encrypts and then transmits users’ files across the internet to our datacenters (running Linux.) We use the same ‘C’ and ‘C++’ libraries on Windows, Mac, and Linux interchangeably. I estimate it slows down software development by about 5 percent overall to support all three platforms. However, I run into other developers or software managers who mistakenly think cross platform code is difficult, or might double or triple the development schedules. This misconception is based on their bad experiences with badly run porting efforts. So this article is to quickly outline the 10 simple rules I live by to achieve efficient cross platform code development.

Guide to UTF-8 for PHP and MySQL Software Developers | Toptal

As a MySQL or PHP developer, once you step beyond the comfortable confines of English-only character sets, you quickly find yourself entangled in the wonderfully wacky world of UTF-8. On a previous job, we began running into data encoding issues when displaying bios of artists from all over the world. It soon became apparent that there were problems with the stored data, as sometimes the data was correctly encoded and sometimes it was not.

When we started building DropSend, we decided to support all languages worldwide from the start. The interface is currently in English only, but the application can send, store, sort and process your data whatever language you want. As a result, we have a good number of customers out east. To support worldwide languages, you need to use UTF-8 encoding for your web pages, emails and application, rather than ISO 8859-1 or another common western encoding, since these don't support characters used in languages such as Japanese and Chinese.

How to support full Unicode in MySQL databases · Mathias Bynens

Saved by uncleflo on January 20th, 2015.

For a long time, I was using MySQL’s utf8 charset for databases, tables, and columns, assuming it mapped to the UTF-8 encoding described above. By using utf8, I’d be able to store any symbol I want in my database — or so I thought. While writing about JavaScript’s internal character encoding, I noticed that there was no way to insert the U+1D306 TETRAGRAM FOR CENTRE (팆) symbol into the MySQL database behind this site. The column I was trying to update had the utf8_unicode_ci collation, and the connection charset was set to utf8.

Handling Unicode Front to Back in a Web App

http://kunststube.net/frontback/

Saved by uncleflo on January 20th, 2015.

Understanding encoding is all fine and good, but there are many gotchas involved in actually building a complex system consisting of many moving parts that uses anything but ASCII characters. This article shows how to get a PHP web application with a MySQL database set up to handle UTF-8 data front to back and explains common pitfalls.
