"meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8""
use this in header it will solve the problem..
if you want to store in a data base you should yous
"mysql_query ("set character_set_results='utf8'"); "
before query..
I did like that and got success for my financial tamil application
