I have been trying to figure this thing out for a while. I gave up and am going at it again. I have a couple of website in languages other then english (Chinese, Korean, and Russian, to name a few). The developer created the pages in HTML, without using includes (don't ask me why), I have taken it upon myself to convert these pages to CFML pages (as this is what the main site is in) and use include file and pretty it up a bit. For some reason though, the Chinese text is not showing up when I resave it as a .cfm page. In the editor it looks fine, but when I open it up on the site, everything looks like crap. Please do not insult me by saying to add the "<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=gb2312">" or utf-8, seriously.. I am stuck, can someone please please help me with this... I am giving up hope!
Are you using CFINCLUDE to include the files? This isn't quite what you said not to say, but have you tried: <cfhtmlhead text="<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=gb2312">"> ? Not sure if that will make a differrence, but it's worth a try...
I assumed that DP would email me whenever I got a reply.... aparently not.... and I was once again trying to solve a problem and came across my own post.... i was quite amused. I actually did solve this problem and just thought I would share it with you. And you are really going to kick yourself, I know I did. The solution is..... <cfprocessingdirective pageencoding="..."> Thats it!!! That one little line, not even an entire line of code fixed all the problems! It was freaking amazing. But I have run into a new problem.... so put your thinking caps on... I used this for a Polish site, a Russian site and a Chinese site... each time I had to change the actual encoding but it was no biggie... but now I am trying to do a Korean site and I either get a "page encoding is not supported" message..... OR in a few cases..... "sun.io.ByteToCharEUC_KR.getIndex1()[S" Lets see if anyone can figure this out.... Also is anyone able to edit these other language pages in dreamweaver? I can only edit them in VS, which I dont hate.... I am just used to dreamweaveer and its wonderful colorcoding....... Thanks in advanced for all of your help.... And late thanks to all those who replied before but I never responded to.... this time Ill keep an eye on this Thread! Thanks!
I know... just wanted to mention that "Him" isn't a he, its a she.... But I do no have a complete resolution.... if you read the whole thing I cant fine the code for the Korean, or Japanese languages. Its not UTF-8 or any of the common ones.... when I try them I get a bunch of either Not supported messages or this other message which I cant remember but if anyone wants i can post it...... So thoughts? Thanks. Also, does anyone know how to get DPF to email me anytime this subscription is commented on or anything? I only know that someone responds if I go and check it.... which is kinda annoying. Thanks.
