PHP UTF-8 encoding echoes question marks

According to http://php.net/manual/en/function.utf8-encode.phputf8_encode encodes data from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8.

However, Polish lang has iso-8859-2 charset so you should use

iconv('iso-8859-2', 'utf-8', $d) instead of utf8_encode($d)

You could try to execute

SET NAMES utf8

As a query. After you've made the connection.

Then just in case set this header

header('Content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8');

Then try again
