I believe that questions like this have been addressed quite thoroughly before.
Perhaps you can start by checking this thread: UTF-8 in database fields

sorry but I do not understand. do you mean I should change

Local charset :
if you are upgrading older release thant 3.0.0, read carefully description on the right !

wich is now

utf-8

to :

utf8_general_ci

?

are the fields in the jos_comment table also in utf8_general_ci? Are you able to read the comments in them trough phpmyadmin?

where is

jos_comment table

?

and how to read

the comments in them trough phpmyadmin

?

also, i did something wrong now as now when I post the comment they are not appearing on the preview....

i create post and submit but he is not visible on the front page...

I suppose your host gave you some kind of control panel such as cpanel.

Here is information how to use cpanel with phpmyadmin to access your database:

yes, this I understand but where to find jos_comment table ??

when you log with phpmyadmin into your database you should see the table jos_comments (or something else as prefix xxx_comments).

this one looks very complicated for me ....is there any other way to correct it?

if I need to do this complicated stuff then I'm afraid to done something wrong.

I would say than there is no Croatian letter support and will change to english or ...

of course there is Croatian support. Man! How are you expecting to support a website if you are afraid of making something wrong? That is why we are human to do mistakes and learn from them.

Get the phpmyadmin tool and go to the jos_comment table, then see if it is utf8_genaral_ci, look if the fields in the table are utf8_general_ci and if not, change them to this.

yes, this one is good reply. will try it and let you the outcome
