I just upgraded to Moodle 1.8.2 and I still cannot enter Hebrew. The behavior is exactly the same as before.
Let me summarize again the behavior:
In the editor I enter Hebrew characters. In the code view I see the Hebrew characters. After saving changes the results are ??????. If I edit again I see the ????? in both the editor and in the code viewer.
I tried also the new feature: Highlight the Hebrew letters in the editor and choose he from the language drop down. The code shows a span tag with lang he. When saved still showing ?????.
What else can I do?
A reminder about what I see in the database:
Server - UNIX
Language - English
Charcter set: MySQL charset: UTF-8 Unicode (utf8)
Collation - UFT8 _unicode_ci
The list of database shows the following:
Database 
|
Collation |
|---|---|
| information_schema | utf8_general_ci |
| uj93_live | latin1_swedish_ci |
| uj93_mdle1 | latin1_swedish_ci |
| Total: 3 | latin1_swedish_ci |
Tables:
The collation of all tables show: latin1_swedish_ci (this is very strange)
