Korean characters not displaying when pulled from MS Access database using php



I have an Access DB which contains a load of people with Korean names. I hava a classic asp site (which i inherited) that reads data from the DB quite happily and displays it properly. I am now developing a different site in php, but it is unable to display korean characters at all. I have written two very simple scripts, one in asp and one in php to work out why.





ASP:







<%

Response.CodePage = 65001



Set objLoginConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

objLoginConn.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"

objLoginConn.Open "C:\wwwroot\mydb.mdb"

Set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")



SQL = "SELECT firstname FROM mytable"

rs.Open SQL, objLoginConn, 3, 3



while not rs.EOF

response.write("<p>"& rs.fields("firstname").value &"</p>")

rs.movenext

wend

%>







PHP:







<?php

$con = new COM("ADODB.Connection") or die("Cannot start ADO");

$con->Open("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source = mydb.mdb");



$SQL = "SELECT firstname FROM mytable";

$rs = $con->execute($SQL);



while (!$rs->EOF) {

echo "<p>".$rs->Fields("firstname")->value."</p>";

$rs->movenext();

}

?>







the ASP script prints all the names correctly and the php script prints a load of ?'s. If i remove the Response.CodePage = 65001 bit from the ASP script it prints ?'s just like the PHP.





I then turned my attention to finding a PHP equivilent of Response.CodePage = 65001 and found things like header('Content-Type:text/html; charset=UTF-8'); and ini_set('default_charset', 'UTF-8'); but they did not do the job.





Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
