I just installed a MediaWiki 1.2.4 on my webhost. The in place install works well, that is great. But later we find something strange. If we try to do [[ḿ]] or [[Ḿ]], it won't work properly. We also find that [[a-ḿ]] is OK, but [[ḿ-pô]] is messed up. If we try the same thing on wikipedia.org, everything works fine. On my powerbook with OSX , everything is fine too.
On my webhost, they are running php 4.3.4 and mysql 4.0.18-standard On my powerbook, I am running php 4.3.2 and mysql 4.0.15
Since there is no error during the installation and two installation on almost the same php/mysql version give different results. I have no idea where does the problem comes from and How do I fix it.
Anybody have any idea?

Hello, Maybe your web host doesnt send the page as utf-8 ? What's happening exactly ? Can you reach the pages ? Do you have any error prompting ?
Is the wiki on your webhost is publicly available so we can make tests ? :)
cheers,
I forget to say that, to see what went wrong, you can check this page http://www.holopedia.org/ Other characters in utf8 seems OK.

If it's configured for English, Unicode case folding may not be set up properly, and it can corrupt some non-ASCII characters appearing at the beginning of a title.
Set $wgLanguageCode appropriately in LocalSettings.php and it should kick in the UTF-8 module. Let me know if that fixes things...

Set the following lines in your LocalSettings.php:
$wgInputEncoding = "UTF-8"; $wgOutputEncoding = "UTF-8";
