Thanks for the help.
I think you tend on the "Character set" Section
(http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Backing_up_a_wiki#Character_set).

My prolbem is that my old provider does not provide the console program
"mysqldump".
The only way for me is to export via phpmyadmin. And there I can't use
the option "-default-character-set=latin1".

Is there a way to convert the dump after export?

(Forgive me, if I am double posting. Tried it two times with the Newsgroup Server, but the messages never showed up ... even after waiting some hours).

Best regards,
Kai
