Mazin Mustafa	Monday 28 June 2004 1:04:23 pm I am using eZ publish 3.4.0. It is setup for english-usa. I'm simply looking for the best way to publish articles that are in both English and Arabic. I tried adding a custom translation with ara-IQ, create the English article, tranlated it to the custom local, but the display is row character code خ..etc. Please advise.
Mazin Mustafa	Wednesday 30 June 2004 8:20:14 am Folks, I'm not being lazy by asking this question. I had already done a full a search of the forums and doc's prior to writing this post. I see the hints to using UTF-8 and changing databases and all that. My question is do I really have to do all that just for article content? The menus, links, everything can remain in Latin. In HTML, displaying Arabic is just a matter of inputing the text in unicode. How can this be made to work with eZ publish if it is possible.
Paul Forsyth	Wednesday 30 June 2004 8:27:11 am UTF-8 should do it. The primary requirement is that you db must be able to handle utf-8, not all of them can. If you are using mysql you need a 4.1.X series version. Once you have that its relatively simple to set up eZ publish for this, as described in: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/configuration/configuration/language_and_charset/unicode_with_ez_publish paul -- http://www.visionwt.com
