    Hallo Friends,

    I am a new developer with Flash-amfphp and i deal the following problem.
    I have a DB (called "mycities") and in this there is one - only - table called "cityT"
    The table has two columns
    a)cityid
    b)city
    The collation and the charset both of the table and the DB are set to utf8 and utf8_general_ci, in order to be able to store and retrieve data in greek and english both.

    Now i have stored two cities with english names and two in greek names.
    But when i call my service (WoldCities.php - showcities)in the browser i get only the cities with english names.
    Unfortunately the cities with greek names are presented with a couple of questionmarks(one ? for each character of the name).
    For example the city "Αθήνα" is represented by "?????"
    or the city "Θεσσαλονίκη" is represented by "???????????"

    Could you please help me find a way in order to be able showing and retrieving greek names ?

      One correction to the above.
      The greek cities are shown not with questionmarks (?)but with smth like chinese.
      If i change the charset (in the showcities service) to 'iso-8859-7'  or to 'windows-1253' then these cities are represented with questionmarks

      Please help me
