RE: [PHP] a bit off the list but should be easy

2001-08-15 Thread Lawrence . Sheed

Most people do it like this


Specify the charset in the document.

e.g.

Simplified Chinese
meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=gb2312

Traditional Chinese
meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=big5

You can also specify the language type in the web server - have a look at
your apache settings.  
Doing it via the charset= method is better though imho.


Note that the download font thing is Internet Exploder Specific.   Internet
Exploder also has a few issues with different charsets.
Also note that *all* html documents should have a specified charset - even
the plain english ones. Most of the html on the internet is coded wrongly,
this does not make it correct.

I do a lot of simplified chinese development, being located in Shanghai,
China.

Cheers,

Lawrence.

Hi people
It is about html, that when I go to some sites that ask me to download their
font like Japanese or chinese font, in order to read their language, what do
they put in the page for that kind of detection?

That's not entirely true.  The most basic valid HTML document looks like
this:

!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN
titleSome Random Title/title
pText./p

-or-

!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN
titleSome Random Title/title
Text.

That's it.  Three lines.  No HTML tag, no HEAD tag, no BODY or FRAMESET
tag.  They're all optional.  Of course, if you want to get really picky,
only one character is required to be in the TITLE; same goes for the
BODY, which is implied by the end of the HEAD, which is also implied,
and so on and so forth.  ;)

META tags are optional, which means charset specifications are optional,
as well.  I assume a default charset is sent by the server, anyway,
because my phpinfo() settings for my own server return en-us for
HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE, but I could be mistaken, because I never cared
about it because it was optional after all.  ;)

Re: [PHP] a bit off the list but....

2001-05-01 Thread Donald Goodwill

SAP, is a company producing a small little program
called R/3 and also known as Enterprise Software,
which costs several $million to several $billion to
implement. It is used by Microsoft, General Motors and
other monster companies.
I don't know what it is written in, but SAP software
comes with a 4GL programming language called ABAP,
which can be used to create reports and customize some
of its modules.
If you saw an SAP job ad offering $250/hr., that's not
unusual.

Unless there are other SAPs. Search the web.

SAP is a piece of ERP (=Enterprise Resource Planning) software. You can 
adapt it to fit the companies needs.

For more info visit the SAP and BAAN websites.. they both create ERP software.
Or use your favorite searchengine instead of asking questions to a list.

Bye,


B.
