I have the following very simple code, which retrieves utf8 formatetd data, such as containing umlauts from a mysql database, which may or may not be set as utf8. If I use either of the commented out approaches to ensure that utf8 data is returned, the data will NOT be returned as utf8, however if I leave them off, the data will be displayed. Why would forcing utf8 negate displaying data as utf8?
$con = mysqli_connect("localhost", "x", "", "x");
//$con->query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");
//$con-set_charset('utf8');
$recordsQuery = "SELECT ARTICLE_NAME FROM AUCTIONS1";
if ($getRecords = $con->prepare($recordsQuery)) {
$getRecords->execute();
$getRecords->bind_result($ARTICLE_NAME);
while ($getRecords->fetch()) {
echo "
$ARTICLE_NAME";
}
} else {
print_r($con->error);
}

Perhaps the error lies in the charset you're serving the page with. If you're getting UTF-8 content out of the database and serving it with the default HTML charset of Windows-1252 then it's going to look garbled. Make sure you have the equivalent of this:
header( 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8' );
in your PHP code.
