Character Sets and Collations

Here is an example taken from the Export page:
Summary
In this chapter, we covered the use of language files in phpMyAdmin. We looked at
UTF-8 and the impact of switching from one character set to another. We also saw
how phpMyAdmin has to recode data when the version of MySQL is earlier than
4.1.x, and we looked at the character set and collation features of MySQL version
4.1.x and later.
MySQL 5.0 Features
MySQL 5.0 sports a number of new features. The announcement of these features
calmed down a number of developers and industry observers who were claiming
that MySQL was an inferior product, compared to some competitors who had
already implemented these features. Views, stored procedures, triggers, a standard
INFORMATION_SCHEMA, and (more recently) a profiling mechanism are now present in
the MySQL spectrum.
Observations on the History of MySQL 5.0
In June 2005, I attended LinuxTag in Karlsruhe, Germany with other phpMyAdmin
developers, where we demoed our software. At this conference, we participated to a
joint celebration of PHP's and MySQL's tenth anniversary, along with the respective
fathers of these products, Rasmus and Monty.
