I have a problem with my project.
The project search through the database and displays the results.
The problem is that I get question marks instead of GREEK letters (i do not mean rubbish, i mean Greek).
Suppose that the problem is not about encoding.
I have to find the command that displays the title of the product into the results page.
I finally found this :
I guess the problem is
Is there the right place to be?

I attach the file that includes the previous code.
Thank you

The problem is not the database. I do import it with utf8 and all pages are utf8 encoded plus i used the meta charset tag.
The problem is with one single line
$tplv['idformat'].= stripslashes(htmlspecialchars($row['title']));
and changed it to
$tplv['idformat'].= stripslashes(htmlspecialchars($row['title'], ENT_COMPAT, "UTF-8"));
but again nothing happens.
Also, when i edit a page(e.g. my welcome page) where i write greek letters, it displayed correctly.
If i edit it again , my greek letters (only in editing mode) are written like
& # and three numbers, all without spaces.
