Encoding problems
« on: July 04, 2002, 06:38:09 PM »
I have translated the gallery into Russian and here is the problem I encountered:  The pages in admin area and in users area are not showing up in correct encoding in my case it is Cyrillic (windows). instead it is showing Western european.  is there a way of fixing it for

1. all pages
or i have to change
2. every page of the templates.

Another thing is that I would like to set my gallry to enable users to change from Russian into English and in this case option 2 is not acceptable.

If i edit the header and put http://mysite/?l=russian and http://mysite/?l=english would that work?

Thank you in advance.
Aleksey

PS if anyone needs the russian language pack I will be glad to send it to you.

hi,
i'm not sure, but
try this in header.html
Code: [Select]

<html>
<head>
<title>{site_name}</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251">

instead of
Code: [Select]

<!-- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE html
     PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
     "DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="de" lang="de" dir="ltr"> -->
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html dir="ltr">
<head>
<title>{site_name}</title>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />


if you do that, english spoken peoples will see with ?l=english only binary chars (галерея)

Everything is working for me now.  I have changed
iso-8859-1 in the second piece of code in your reply and changed it to
windows-1251 and it all worked!!

By the way if i modify the header to show two additional links, whould they show on user front page?

There is a problem with naming the images in cyrilic chars, it shows a bunch of #3565; and so on.  Is there  a solution to that?
____________

Guys, this is the best script I found of the Internet.  I love it!!  And believe me I've been trying to find the easiest and yet powerful gallery for myself and this is the one I'm sticking with!!
Keep up the great work!! Thank you.
Aleksey

Hi,

change the encoding to "windows-1251" in header.html and it should work!
