Problem with the encoding echoing from the db - El Forum - 05-08-2012

[eluser]ven_dev[/eluser]
I have a database storing the information to utf8-unicode-ci
My data is in Cirilyc.
Everything in the database is OK.
I enter information with a form to the db and everything is fine.
However when I try to get some data form the db,when I echo it I get this -> Венцислав Попов.
How can I repair this.
In my header I have
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=uff-8"/>
My CI config is:
$config['charset'] = 'UTF-8';
$config['permitted_uri_chars'] = 'a-z 0-9~%.:_\-'; (adding а-яА-Я,do not resolve the problem)

Can you help me ?! Wink

Is this a typo:
Code:
<meta http-equiv=“content-type” content=“text/html; charset=uff-8”/>
Or does yours say uff-8 instead of uft-8?
