    I think I found the problem. I have one table using a binary charset and another using utf-8 (and those both need to match). Everything else is running the proper charsets. I have a solution I'm ready to try (and it's a fairly simple one). I'm just waiting on a reply from someone who knows a bit more about it to have a look and make sure that the solution doesn't cause a problem much more massive than the original.

    I'm sure that the tools I'm using make it a bit easier to see and comprehend. What is killing me is the sites original coding. Have to strip it all away from the content and place it on my template.....all 250+ pages of it. Now THAT is brutal on the eyes. But trust me, I don't know a dang thing about this stuff. Everything I have done so far has been brought to you by :google:.

    Whoops. That's my non-admin profile so I can see what you guys see. Trying to find the tables I need to modify the charsets in.

    Problem is that about half of the tables are in latin1_general_ci and the other half are in latin1_swedish_ci. Why vbulletin would do such a retarded thing is beyond me. I have to go through all of them and change them over.

    Thanks for looking it up though.

    A quote from your last link:
    Not good for someone just learning to to come across a problem involving "one of the most confusing topics ever".......

    I am aware of the message problem (it is giving a database error and pounding my email). I'm working on it.
