[Typo3] Did typo3 3.8 compatible to mysql 4.1??

[Dennis Cheung]

Hi Gideon,

I was throught that is okay before. Some problem you will not notice until
you saw the error.

for example. mysql 4.1 unicode compatible.
I didn't notice that before I saw some character broken.
And I found, mysqld using utf8, typo3 using utf8, but mysql_connect using
iso-8859-1.
All chinese character are broken inside database,
(one utf8 character from typo3 it convert into three 8859-1 char, and then
convert one 8859-1 char into one utf character again)

I read some document said, update the mysql.cnf. But they forget typo3 is
not only the one using the server. And you don't have that(root) premission
sometimes.



And, there is an other problem from Extension Mananger/Ext. Kickstarter

Most common is "" and '', database return '' for text default value, but
typo3 wanted a "". It don't match, and always said some columns need to be
update.
