I, too am interested in how the learned masses here go about this.

I'd like to be able to search by UTF-8 data/characters. As far as
display, I thought this was a client-side thing. In other words, a
character is a 'high ascii' value sent to the program displaying.
Based on the language (font) chosen, it will convert that char 128-255
value to a representation of that language's letter.

I only see one problem with this. Lets suppose there is more than one
language in the datastore. Theoretically, there can be 2 characters
that have the same ascii value, and yet are different 'characters' in
each's language.

If one were to search the system in their language, would they match
data that had the same ascii character, but was entered by/as a
different language?

How do most people allow multi-language, UTF-8 data in their
applications-especially if searching is involved?

TIA!
