php - Strange character appearing in text in mysql -
in varchar , text mysql database datatypes, keep seeing  characters appear before every single space after content inserted or updated html textarea fields.
when vardump php data prior insert/update, Â characters aren't there.
i tried converting database , tables default collation of latin1_swedish_ci utf8_general_ci encoding, inserting/updating data again, Â characters still appeared in text before each space.
i don't have grasp on collation , character encoding , thought things fine when left default, encountered issue. how can prevent these characters appearing?
[edit]: if update text database first time, characters not appear. if load text database field , update second time, Â characters appear.
try execute set names 'utf8'
on database init. check encoding of php files.
