Dear Peter, Thank you very much for your answers. It rings a bell.

Do you mean that glyph hexaX will display differently in UTF-8 and EUC_JP? If it is really the case, we cannot use UTF-8. > Round-trip conversion is not safely possible, so if your tool provides a > read/edit/write tool then you will have problems. Maybe we could use "getdatabaseencoding()" to determine the dabase encoding and generate HTML pages with the corresponding headers. Example: Latin1 database <-> ISOS-8859-1 headers. The problem is that PhpPgAdmin interface needs to be localized in several languages, not related to database encoding. Example: EUC_JP interface and Latin1 databases. Maybe a solution would be to use the ISO 10646 notation for PhpPgAdmin interface localization: "&#XH;", where H is a hexadecimal number.
