Hi All.

I have a table in MySQL, that I access using Class::DBI, which contains
names.
The names should be in Hebrew.
Can I keep Hebrew in the database? Should I use utf8 or some other encoding?
Will Class::DBI will handle utf8 without fuss? 
Given that I want to search the names, how do I do it? Use the search_like?

Help?
Shmuel.
