How to search a page in page.sql for those languages which are not based on Latin Script like Japanese as the titles are not present in utf format and hence the data is not readeable. For eg Select * from page where page_title='インド' is my query. How to execute this query on mysql tables as data is not stored in utf-8 format as it displays weird characters and thus no result is displayed. If i try the php function utf_decode still it does not work.
