[Koha] UTF 8 encoding

[nitesh rijal]

actually this is what  i got when i used UTF8_decode function of PHP

CODE:
<?php
    $conn = mysql_connect('localhost','root','healthnet') or die('Could not
connect to database');
    $db = mysql_select_db('koha',$conn) or die('Could not select database');
    $query = mysql_query("SELECT author FROM biblio") or die('Could not
execute query');
    $row = mysql_fetch_array($query);
    echo '<pre>'.$row['author'].'</pre>';
    echo '<pre>'.utf8_decode($row['author']).'</pre>';
?>

Result:

"कारॠकी, यॠवराज सिंह"

"�?ार्�?�?, युवरा�? सि�?ह"

Is there a problem with the search.pl script file???
I have set up the mysql character set as UTF8 and also the collation in
phpmyadmin is utf8_general_ci . Isn't this sufficient for the Nepali
Unicode???
Nepali is a Devnagari Script, similar to Hindi.

Please Help.

Thanks.
