Hi Andrew, maybe it is because of my unperfect english, but I don't understand where is the problem. ISO-8859-X is a standard and Unicode is also a standard. ISO-8859-X use 8-bit encoding and therefore it needs special charset tables for groups of languages (ISO-8859-1 is for Western Languages like English, German, Spain etc., ISO-8859-2 is for Eastern Europe languages like Czech, Slovak, Polish,), and there are other charsets for next language groups (Cyrillic, Hebrew, and many others). Unicode (www.unicode.org) is a 16-bit (or 32-bit) encoding which includes the most of the languages and character sets and it is based on ISO-8859 charsets, which are grouped into one big charset. ISO 10646 (compatible with Unicode 4.0) is a 32-bit encoding, which includes all the charsets on the world, it is the most complex charset. You can read the relations between Unicode and ISO 10646 here: http://www.unicode.org/faq/unicode_iso.html ---------- Windows-1250 is a Microsoft's non-standard modification of ISO-8859-2 used in some European countries. Unfortunately it is very expanded (because of M$'s monopoly) and many people consider it for standard. I don't recommend to use Windows-1250. ----------- You can use ISO-8859-X or Unicode, both of them are standard and are well supported by browsers. Unicode has an advantage of 16-bit encoding, you can use more charsets (Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Cyrillic, Hebrew, Chinese...) together in single webpage. I am not sure if it is necessatry, but theoretically you have this possibility.

Robert and others.... I have found many mentions of issues with Slovak on webdevelopment many of them revert to the UTF-8 (by the way my new setup will allow you to revert also!) while the rest are using the windows-1250 char set. I will allow the manual configuration of language sets so that UTF can be used but as I am finding most languages are working well with the ISO system. It is the best of both worlds, I get to stick to the standards and use the ISO 8859-X for the languages and if a user wants they can select the UTF-8 for thier system. I am working on the idea of a central I18N server for the lang sets so that translators can update a central system and users can download the updated language set instead of a new version everytime. (for work I still use osraids v1.1 because it does most every thing I need.) I need to get another development version out and a release, its been a month or so... I want to use the CVS system but I need a kick in the butt. I would like any submissions for the following ideas for a forward looking todo list: 1. Customer site setup report. 2. Customer address book printout 3. Consultant address book printout 4. Insert reporting idea here.........Reports are important 5. Accounting system - - should I do a cash system also or just stick to double ledger. Most "consultants" I know run a cash balance sheet. I however have a double ledger system started. later.........

Here is a webpage that is not declaring the character set. This would be horrible for a new user. Hint its not UTF-8 or ISO 8859-5..... http://pilot.org.ua/etcnet/etcnet-osdn.html No pressure on me though, no pressure at all..... hehehe I about have every thing back up an working, the rewrite of the config is taking longer than I banked on because I am writing classes for the form elements.

I just want everyone to help in whatever way they can. Just trying to draw out the logic will show you some of the pitfalls. I am working Audit at a holiday Inn express tonight! 4 hours of work and 4 hours of webbrowsing. I could narrow it down to 2 hours of work If I wrote the software but thats just me....... Try to include items to the osraids mailing list on the sourceforge site. So that eveyone can get an idea of what is going on.

First thoughts are we will need an additional column in the _Users table, say Access, that can be one of at least three values: 1, Admin, can view / edit all, and make changes to the user definition tables. 2, Internal, can view / edit all, and make changes to the contacts and AR and billing records. 3, External, can view only AR's billing and WR's where they are registered as a contact for the company the record relates to. and create WR's but will not have the opportunity to change the company or contact detail on the WR to anything other than themselves. It might be better to create a database containing a menu system that will enable or suppress elements depending on access level.

Need help. If you would like to layout a page and an show me how it should work I would love to. The issue is that customers should not see other customers and allowing them to log in with a dropdown of customer IDs is the prefered method. Ideas on this topic are welcome. Any submission on this topic would probably be accepted as there is no current code. Hint. Thank You.

Martin Thank you for all of your Ideas. I am a bit busy both socialy and professionally at the moment. I did the Invoice update to the ARs once. I found that when you go to print out the AR for inclusion with the invoice letter (solution to one of your questions) that you could change it. If you have a chalk board or white board and would like to draw out the database and operation then you will see that it is hard to do as you will store information twice which is a no-no. Yes I know about the developer release issues. I am having trouble finishing any part so I just work on another. I asked a friend who manages a larger project and he says that he just asks his wife to yell at him until its done..... I am lacking in that section but hope to finish without. Please just send emails asking if I am "done yet" to keep me on my toes.

Yes this is true, but UTF-8 _is_ ISO 10646. Let me explain. They are bit for bit identical. Everything that works with that ISO will work with UTF-8. The question is, how will a search engine or futures user agent handle such a vauge statement. If I want all user agents in the future to understand the language desired I will have to force it upon them in a standard way. Just beat Halo2. Weak ending if I do say so. Back to work until the Lan party. I am working on the setup and am going to implement the language system at the minimum until I am happy with the standards.

Not exactly. UTF-8 is a method of encoding of unicode text, where common english characters are written as ordinary 8-bit text and just special characters are encoded as a sequence of two bytes. There are also another encoding methods, like UTF-16, UCS-2 etc. All they are a part of the Unicode standard.

Update UTF-8 is ISO 10646 just with a easy name. I am looking for the common roadmap as some sections of the standards group are looking for the "all or nothing" and others are working on the "seperate is better" setup. The merits of both. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unicode (ISO 10646) allows all languages to render under the same charset. Seperate (ISO 8859-(1-18) allows a SGML(HTML, XHTML, XML and others) document to declare its language or force the user to render to that language. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unicode would be easier but would eventually have an added element to force the user agent(browser in our case) to use a particular language for search or formating functions(right to left verses left to right and such) to the writers request. Anyone out there that remembers the SGML markup and has input, please email me. I am coding for the seperate setup but am concerned about the PDF output, future API setups for Quickbooks(OFX) and email functions amongst other things. Linus tells people to not over plan, just release, and I am trying. I will do a release because I have been bothered about it a lot lately.

Issue: CSS button highlighting Severity: very low Description: Button highlighting was broken on some browsers due to an uppercase B as shown below. Current code. <span class="tab" onmouseover="this.style.BackgroundColor='#abe'" onmouseout="this.style.BackgroundColor='#eee'"> It should be formated as follows: <span class="tab" onmouseover="this.style.backgroundColor='#abe'" onmouseout="this.style.backgroundColor='#eee'"> While this has a low severity, it does affect its compliance with the W3C.org Validator.

W3C.org has a different take on it. Yes the backend can be anything, however the XHTML, CSS, XML standards are pushing the ISO stuff. MySQL can handle anything as it is just storing stuff, so as long as it is not an index or a sort function then MySQL does not know. Just got back from 13hours of Halo2.....

Right, but if you use UTF-8, you don't need to sort these encodnigs, because Unicode is a 16-bit(or 32-bit) encoding which includes all these language-specific encodings. So one way is to use 8-bit encodings (ISO-8859-1, -2, ... -10) and differentiate them in dependence of concrete language and second way is to use UTF-8 for all languages. I recommend to use 8-bit encodings, because as I know, MySQL does not have Unicode support yet (maybe it is already not true).

I have a friend working on Russian. There are some issues that he lead me o= nto. First of all the document type (DTD) needs updated for each language, along with the html and xhtml stuff. that can be seen near the top of the head.php. Second off the cyrillic (sp) font set is new to me but I understand the concept, I will continue with my developments of a new config and changing the lang on the fly. After I have a more usable version I will release and then will conquor the font and then the Dates for martin, (martin pointed out that different date schemes would be nice) so to use the devel you would edit the config.php by editor not the config system, then create the database and tables. then run. the lang.php file just creates an array with the keyword for the key and the translation for the value. so setting the $lang =3D $sk; is what you need to do in the config. This is a little more work than I thought but it had to be done some time. I am not good with CVS but will try to (with help) get the sourceforge upda= ted. I am organizing a legal battle for another project that I work with and am a little busy so that is what the speed hit is. ---- http://mondorescue.org ----- Andrew Latham On Fri, 5 Nov 2004 07:46:27 +0100, Robert Zeln=EDk <rz...@vs...> wrot= e: > I downloaded and installed the devel version.

Carpal Tunnel.....typing too much..... new setup is 60% done it is going to use the same themed look and have I18N at login. will work on documentation after. A friend is working on russian and I will do french and 1337 later. So far I have "no", "sk", "en-gb", and "en". I would like some feed back on the new layout. Check screenshot on website.= =20 Suggested colors or backgrounds for alternate themes. I have a gray and blue (shown) theme. Theme will be selectable by user. CSS is very cool. Also will push authentication to a splash screen so language can be chosen. default will be set in config. thanks guys.......

I have just learned that the translations will infact be easy to complete. http://w3c.org has a lot of great references and ideas about using different char-sets.

Here are the optional Cyrillic type encodings for the translation. I will read more about them. So far it seems that I can handle both with no issue. I am checking the database manual next for confirmation. cp1251 - Windows-1251, win-1251, 1251 Windows-specific Cyrillic charset. KOI8-R - koi8-ru, koi8r - Russian. This charset is supported in 4.3.2. I can use anything that you can send. -- Andrew Latham http://www.lathama.com la...@gm... la...@ya... la...@la...

Since this is static data it would seem to make more sense to have it in a static format rather than a SQL DB.

OK I am looking at all the code you sent me. have most of it in. some issues ######################################################## Date ######## - I think that changing it at the report level is not the best of ideas so here are three ideas about a fix. My choice is the third and the function for calculating invoice due dates will need revision. We could also write a function for this or I could email you my work on the calendar module. Yes I have hidden code from you and the users. I want to work more on the 2.0 branch but the I18N and css inspired me to work some on the 1.x.x branch. 1. in the sql syntax - osraids is using the sql engine already to format some things so it is better to utilize the same process for the conversion (hint: I won an award for using the database to format data when the scripting language was slow, ASP in 1998) 2. the date formating should work in all forms and there for have a function to do this so that all forms can display the way you wish. 3. from setup on you could declare the structure by changing the database table creation commands once. - my vote for easiest ! < // $pdf->Cell(2,0.25,$dbrow["SerDate"],0,2,'L'); < $serdate = strtotime( $dbrow["SerDate"]); < $serdate = date ($datefmt,$serdate ); < $pdf->Cell(2,0.25,$serdate,0,2,'L'); --- > $pdf->Cell(2,0.25,$dbrow["SerDate"],0,2,'L'); ######### Variables ######### This can get dangerous. I will set it right and email you. The long trem issue is that the lang array will be replaced by a database driven array that will not contain any other languages. so I will fix a select box for the config. < $confinfo .= "\$clang = \"" . $lang .
