PHP: mysqli::get_charset – Manual

real_connect(“localhost”,”root”,””,”test”); $db->set_charset(‘latin1’); var_dump($db->get_charset()); ?>

The above examples will output:

object(stdClass)#2 (7) { [“charset”]=> string(6) “latin1” [“collation”]=> string(17) “latin1_swedish_ci” [“dir”]=> string(0) “” [“min_length”]=> int(1) [“max_length”]=> int(1) [“number”]=> int(8) [“state”]=> int(1) }
