Good for you. Did you have a question?

A question, in English, is usually followed by the
question mark (?) character. The question mark
helps people to quickly understand that you are
in need of help, rather than simply making a
comment.

It is valuable to ensure that a post/message asking
for information contains at least one clear question.
Otherwise the reader might 'scan' right through it,
then go straight on to the next post.

As an aside, if you *do* have a question, my next
inquiry of you will be ..
"Does this question have *anything* to do with Java?",
..because MySql is not written in Java, & whether
it can support Hindi is of no immediate interest to
readers of a Java focused discussion forum.

There is an implied one, and you are just being a wiseass being so
literal. You have been hanging out with computers too long. You might
think it is funny, but the joke wears thin the 100th time. Do you
know the answer or not?

Next time ask a question and use the correct newsgroup, please.

The question could conceivably belong here, if you had to do something
to the Hindi to package it up for SQL. That has nothing to do with
SQL.

There's a question? Sure it's possible that his problem is
on topic here, but till now there was no followup with more
concrete explanations what the current problem was.

So what's wrong with asking for using the correct newsgroup:
- a MySQL-related one if the question is not java-related
- comp.lang.java.databases if it's a problem you described

But maybe Manish's explanation or my link to search-results
to pages containing informations about Hindi with MySQL
already helped and Amit just say thanks the way he asks
questions.

Thanks to all groups member,

I solved my problem with your valuable replys.
Now I am able to store and display Hindi text from MySql on JSP,
but still struggling in displaying Hindi text using Resource Bundle
and .properties file.

Thanks once again.

I know, I was answering to some of your posts. Anything new on that?

Like others said, please make sure you post your questions to the
correct newsgroup.

comp.databases.mysql would be applicable in your case.

MySQL supports UTF and unicode, and it is possible to store Hindi
unicode text. Make sure the charset is set correctly (charset = utf8,
collation = utf8_unicode_ci) when you create the tables and columns.
You can have a mix of charsets across tables/columns, but this could
create problems in establishing foreign keys across charsets.

-cheers,
Manish
