Accentuation error database Data Collection

Question

Well, I have a query that takes data from a database table and stores it in an array, however, the data in the database has accents.

When I go to print on the screen the data with

<?php echo $array["nome"]; ?>

The presented stays with accentuation errors, where it has accentuation stays with black question marks.

How can I fix this?

Answer 1

Try it like this:

<?php echo utf8_encode($array["nome"]); ?>

or:

<?php echo utf8_decode($array["nome"]); ?>

See the documentation on:
