Thanks for your response. I am thinking of something that "Just works" :-). There are two forms in E2B dictionary page. One is "Look it up". This form is fine as one needs to type in English to get meaning of the word. The second one is for user to "Submit" different Bengali meaning of the given English word. User is supposed to type in this form using Unicode. However, as you can guess, many users are not able to do so. So they just type Bengali word using English script, mainly in a phonetic way. So I think it would be good to use Probhat layout. > Whatever you end up with, it would be very helpful if you try to > separate reusable parts of it in a javascript library of some sort. I completely agree with Deepayan. Ideally, I would prefer to include just one JS file (this code should load its dependency) in the header of html file. Something like <script src="SMMMsOnTheFlyUnicodeTyping.js" type="text/javascript"></script> In html body. I will call relevant functions when I need them. Like, for E2B dictionary user case, I will call one function like <input name="bn_new_word" value="" onkeypress="return TypeInUnicodeUsingProbhatLayout(event);> and for displaying help something like "onclick="DisplayProbhatLayout()". Your current help display function looks very good. To summarize, an user wouldn't realize any difference from current view except for a little "Display help" link. However, when one type inside the "Submit" box it will be in BN Unicode automatically.
