 * Hi,
 * I just noticed when using the import functionality with csv the plugin seems 
   to not ot handle the Euro-Character € correctly. The import itself goes well,
   just the € gets substituted by € .
 * The file was in UTF-8 encoding, I double checked and tested because i thought
   i might have accidentally uploaded an ANSI file. Looking at it with an text editor
   it seems to be correct.
 * Has this happened to anyone else as well?
 * Btw, regardless of the error above this a great plugin, and I really enjoy using
   it. Thanks for that.
 * Cheers!

 * Hi,
 * yes, this seems to be problem with the character encoding during an import. There
   are a few reports on broken imports with this character and others (like from
   foreign languages/alphabets).
    I don’t really know what exactly happens, but 
   it seems to be something weird between character encoding of the file, how the
   PHP functions treat it, and the encoding in the database.
 * However, this should only happen during an import. If you type in the € sign 
   by hand, it should work as expected.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Hey Tobias,
 * thanks for getting back so quickly. I though it might be like that.
    I just wanted
   to import several tables with a few occurences of € somewhere in the data and
   keep them up to day using the export again.
 * Maybe if I find time I will try to look in the code myself.
 * Thanks again for that great plugin!

 * Hi,
 * that would be awesome! I have been trying to find out what’s going on with import
   and character encoding, but without success so far…
 * Best wishes,
    Tobias
