Having trouble getting foreign characters and Emoji to display.
Edited to clarify
A user types an Emoji character into a text field which is then sent to the server (php) and saved into the database (mysql). When displaying the text we grab a JSON encoded string from the server, which is parsed and displayed on the client side.
QUESTION: the character for a "trophy" emoji saved in the DB reads as
%uD83C%uDFC6
When that is sent back to the client we don't see the emoji picture, we actually see the raw encoded text.
How would we get the client side to read that text as an emoji character and display the image?
(all on an iphone / mobile safari)
Thanks!
