Hi Jacqueline,
When you say « I need to send this word to the server: Santería » :
Are you speaking from the web server or from the database server ?
If the database server is your problematic target, witch one are you using :
PostgreSQL;
MySQL;
SQLite;
other ?
I got, times ago such kind of troubles against PostgreSQL before solving them
definitively in using a simple and trustable solution i can explicit if
appropriate.
Best Regards,
Pierre
