กรณีที่ต้องการใช้ภาษาไทยให้กำหนด Collation เป็น utf8_unicode_ci ดังนี้
[code lang=”php”]
<?php
$dbhost = ‘localhost’;
$dbname = ‘dbxxx’;
$dbuser = ‘userxxx’;
$dbpass = ‘passxxx’;

$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass)
or die (‘Error connecting to mysql’);
mysql_select_db($dbname);
mysql_query("SET NAMES UTF8");
$sql = "SELECT * FROM sometable";

if ($objQuery = mysql_query($sql, $conn))
{
echo "OK";
}
else
{
echo "Error " . mysql_error();
}
mysql_close($conn);
?>
