Re: iconv-error with encoding of mysql-database

Hi,

could you please send me the input data off-list? I'd like to run a few tests.
For the time being, please try to pre-process the data using the iconv
command-line application and then send them as ISO-8859-1. This should do the
trick.

regards,
Markus
