[TYPO3] Special characters not resolved properly in Browser

[Hariprasad Panga]

Hi All,

I have a database table with column collation "utf8_general_ci". When data
is fed directly through sql , it is not able to display special characters
in exact form. When the same data is entered through RTE it is shown
correctly.
The setting for character encoding is following :-
config.renderCharset = utf-8
config.metaCharset = utf-8

Please let me know how this can be resolved.

Regards,
Hari.
