I found your issue here; xdenser/node-firebird-libfbclient#9

Yes, considering that columns and collates are one, and the data is another charset (non utf-8) — DB is corrupted.

But I can nothing to do with that, because all clients software are adopted to work like they now do, and for the certain reasons — they can not change it...

the best I can do:

1. setup win1251 connection (because it is DB default and columns and collates are in that charset)
2. read (select) data what is in win1257 charset...
3. convert fm win1257 to utf-8
4. and finally return utf-8 string to clients browsers so it will normally seen by users...

know that is stupid, but have nothing to do with that....

Hi!

Iwould like to ask, is there any connection option for client charset? Unfortunately the DB allow WIN1250 connection. With default i can not attach the DB. :(

Thank you in advance!
