does any of u know the significant or the difference between ' ’ both of the upper quote sign is found using quote sign but on different program. on word if u type quote u will get the second sign. but on notepad or even here on this textbox that i'm writing on, u will find the first quote sign... i want to know the difference between them... everytime im calling a record from mysql by php if the data contains the second quote sign im getting '?' question mark instead of the quote sign... how can i solve this problem using php?? is it a problem with mysql or with php??
