Localizing message strings and static text
Hello, I am creating a Perl based web site template and it will be deployed in different languages. I have some static text in the site like form labels, window titles, user error messages etc. I want to store these strings separately so that these can be easily translated. Which storage media is best for this purpose? Text file with key-value pairs, DBM or a RDBMS. Gettext module talks about po files. What are those? Will I need to do any specific programming to be able to use GetText module? Thanks
Sending attachments in email
Hello, I am using sendmail module to send emails but now I have a new requirement to send two attachments in the email which a user has attached in the form. I don't think sendmail has a capability to do that. What options do I have where I don't have to install a third party product? Thanks in advance, Dhiraj
Querying XML data
All, Is there a way to query XML files in Perl 5.005 (solaris 2.7)? I have data stored in XML files and I want to extract data only from the files which match my selection condition. I guess that if there is something like that then I should be able to query files first and then process the result set using parser module. Is that right? Please clarify if I can query a collection of XML files and not just one file. Thanks
UTF Problem
All, Is it true that Perl 5.005 (UNIX) does not supports UTF? Does this means Perl code cannot understand non ASCII characters. I have a PERL program which manipulates data retrieved from XML files and XML data can be non ASCII. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Site design
Hi, I am new to PERL. I need to know if embperl module works only with Apache server and not other HTTP servers? Also, can any one of you point me to any documentation which talks about designing a PERL site keeping internationalization in mind? Thanks
