I don't think so. The problem is he uses EUC_TW for backend encoding,
while he uses Big5 for frontend encoding. In this case he should
declare that client side encoding explicitly to let backend do the
encoding conversion. To acomplish this in php scripts, call:
pg_set_client_encoding($con, "BIG5");
before doing any query ($con is a connection to PostgreSQL).
Note that EUC_TW or any multibyte encodings that are allowed for
backend side, do not contain such ASCII special characters as "|" and
should be safe for the parser and the regexp routines.
