Hi Rosen, either use ISO-8859-7 for the encoding or UTF-8. If you use ISO-8859-7 your site will not need any modifications (either than replacing the "&tau, ..., etc" symbols with the actual characters). If you use UTF-8 you will of course have to modify your strings to make them UTF-8 compatible.
Please, take into account that using the "τ&eta, ..., etc" symbols is *not* guaranteed to work for users visiting your site from Greece. No matter what the standards say, there are problems. Trust me. I live in Greece :-) -Stathis On Tuesday 04 April 2006 15:39, Rosen wrote: > Hi, > I have one very big problem: I create website with english and greek > language.
