android spinner with accents string

Question

I have a spinner with accents string

<string-array name="typelist">
        <item>Médicament</item>
        <item>Pharmacie</item>
    </string-array>

When I insert them in the database, they are added with weird characters

final String drop = typelist.getSelectedItem().toString();

How can I correct this error please

params.put("type", drop); RequestHandler rh = new RequestHandler(); String s = rh.sendPostRequest(Register_URL, params); PHP code $nom=$_POST['nom']; $type=$_POST['type']; $q3= mysql_query("INSERT INTO prod (Nom,Type) VALUES ('$nom','$type')"); — Lara Fab, Jun 15 '16 at 11:12

I don't think removing the accents is what she/he wants but displaying them properly. – earthw0rmjim Jun 15 '16 at 10:55
