This has nothing to do with sql and it's quite rude to multi post, if
you have to post something in more than one place, select a handful
relevant newsgroups and do a cross-post (select more than one
destination news group in the one and only post you make).

The problem is that you use utf-8 for your output from php and your file
system uses iso or another 7/8-bit character setup. If you want to make
your operating system to work properly with utf-8, see to enable the nls
utf-8 as default.

The other option is to convert the file name with iconv() function
before you echo it out.
