International characters in iPhone
Has anyone know if you can type international characters with the iPhone keyboard. I send email to clients in Spanish and Portuguese and I find myself missing how easy it was to type accent marks in my previous phone, a blackberry.

Typing international characters
I have not been able to find any international characters such as umlauts, accents etc. Does any one know if they can be created as they don't seem to be part of the symbol set, or am I missing something?
Also, it would be great if there were a simpler way to add periods (on my blackberry i could simply press the space bar twice).
MacPro, Powerbook G4, iPhone Mac OS X (10.4.10)Input is English only for this version of the iPhone:

International Characters with Netmail
Hi all,
I'm using Sun One portal server 6. I have set the platform charset to Iso-8859-7 so that every portal page displays greek characters correctly.
My only problem is with NetMail. When I get mail I can see greek characters correctly with NetMail Lite. However when I'm sending email using NetMail Lite if I write Greek characters they turn to question marks when I read the email with any client (Netmail Lite, Outlook express etc).
Any ideas
Thanks

I'd like to buy an iPhone 4S in France directly from the Apple Store, not from the operators. But, I will go back to my country, Thailand. So, I'm wondering to know that there is an INTERNATIONAL warranty for iPhone, and is it valid in Thailand (warranty). Would it be able to be claimed at the iStudio in Thailand?
There is NO International Warranty for the iPhone. Your best bet is to purchase one in Thailand. If you purchase a phone in France, you will NOT get warranty service on it in Thailand and will have to return it to France (or any EU country) for warranty service.

Problem with international characters showing up as junk
Hi All,
Little question.
I've made a xml data template which executes a query to fetch person names from the e-business suite tables.
However there are international characters in the names which are showing up incorrectly. When executing the query in the database everything shows up correctly. But when the query is executed via XML publisher the produced XML contains junk characters.
This is happening with for example o umlaut characters.
The database characterset is: WE8ISO8859P1
Version of XML publisher: 5.6.3
PatrickThis turned out to be an extra property which was set in the data template:
property scalable_mode with value "on"
This caused the special characters to be mangled.

Parsing International Characters
Hi folks,
I am trying to parse an xml document which has international characters like "�" (accentuated e used in french). But my parser crashes trying to parse a document containing these characters:
System.out.println("******************* 1");
DocumentBuilderFactory lFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.
newInstance();
System.out.println("******************* 2");
DocumentBuilder lDB = lFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
System.out.println("******************* 3");
lDoc = lDB.parse(new FileInputStream(pFileName));
System.out.println("******************* 4");
The exception occures after 3rd println. Here is what I get:
[17/May/2005 08:50:14:640] info: The Exception Stack Trace is : The element type "FirstName" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</FirstName>".: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The element type "FirstName" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</FirstName>".

-rThen you don't have a well-formed XML document. If it doesn't declare its encoding in its prolog <?xml version="1.0" ?> then it should be encoded in UTF-8 (or, less likely, some variant of UTF-16) and it's probably encoded in ISO-8859-1 or something like that. If that's the case then fix the prolog to declare the encoding: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> or encode the document in UTF-8.

BIG PROBLEM: CSS files not loading because of international characters in file name
I have Muse Beta 7 in Spanish.
The program creates a css file called master_a-página-maestra.css in css folder. It is referenced in the resulting HTML code here:
<!-- CSS -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/site_global.css?3951792836"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/master_a-p%c3%a1gina-maestra.css?fileVersionPlaceholder"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/index.css?3948175564"/>
When you work locally in your Windows formatted har drive, everything looks fine, but when you upload your files to a server, everything is screwed up. The server doesn't recognizes the URL and returns an error page, resulting in style errors in the entire site.
This can also happens with html files if the title of the page contains international characters or with images if the image file name in your Hard Drive contains international characters.
I already pointed out long time ago Muse was generating file names with international characters like á, ñ, etc but nobody cared about it. Too bad. I had to activate file name customization but I think that Muse should replace automatically this characters in the same way that it replaces other conflictive characters like commas or ampersands.
This is not a fault of the FTP client. Accented characters are not web safe regardless of the FTP client you are using. It is a server side issue. Some servers support it some others don't. I don't mind if it works in Adobe Catalyst server because the final website is going to be in another server and maybe next year when paid hosting is ended the client may move it to another server.
It makes more sense to replace accented characters in file names by their not accented equivalents ('a' instead of 'á', 'N' instead of 'Ñ', etc) and avoid all this problem.Zak, It is funny you mention it, because the site I am talking about is hosted in 1and1. try this: http://www.artofwalls.com/rosannawalls/biografía.html
As you can see, the offending "í" in the file name causes 1and1 server to throw a "page not found" error. And this has happened with many other servers I have tried since.
Muse boast of generating code fully compatible with all major web browsers but by using international characters in file names it ggenerates code suitable only for very few web servers. International characters have been always a no-no for internet URLs. Internet was designed by people who didn't care about ascii codes beyond 127 so using international characters in html file names is just call for problems.
"to work with your hosting provider to determine how to enable Unicode encoded (UTF-8) file names and HTML files on their servers" is not a viable solution most of the time unless you are a Very Important Client of your host provider. If not, making changes means money for them and if you are the only one who complains, they are going to just tell you to not use international characters in your names. -
SAPSCRIPT: Printing international characters on ZEBRA; How to do?
Hi,
I use software NiceLabel software to design barcode forms. I upload the design to so10 Sapscript text and print it on the Zebra ptinter. I used device tape ASCIIPRI. The SAP system is unicode.
Now I need to print chinese pallet labels and I get unexpected problems. I found a lot information but no solution. Is it possible to print international charcters form SAPScript on Zebra?
I got the information from Zebra's White Paper: Solution for Printing International Characters. There it says:
"Unicode UTF-8 is embedded within Zebra printers."
"SAP Forms can be universal. Labels and forms ... do not need to be modified or recreated to print in different languages."
"SAP-developed UTF-8 device type and code page support for SAPscript users"
"Label design software that can generate ZPL with support for Unicode ZPL commands"
Do you now which device type I have to use? I think I need an UTF-8 device type. Do you know how to go on?
Please help. Thanks
FrankHi Frank,
as far as I know, it might be possible when using SMARTFORMS instead of SAPScript!
In that case, it depends of the device type and the printer type, of course.
Have a look on SAP Note 750002 SmartForms: Support für Zebra Etikettendrucker (ZPL2).
Cheers

International characters not showing up in certain apps?
I'm using Dreamweaver CS3 and international characters aren't showing up. There are blank spaces where they used to be. The characters are still there, it's just that they appear as blank spaces (I can copy and paste them and see them elsewhere).
This change occurred after I installed 10.6. Is there any way to fix this?I've seen the same thing on Photoshop and Fireworks CS3, and even just the other day on iMovie '09, but I was still on Leopard – so are you sure it's Snow Leopard-related?
In my case, CS3 apps would show squares, and iMovie wouldn't even move the cursor (it wouldn't even let me enter curly quotes). With iMovie it was easily fixed by typing in TextEdit, then copying and pasting to iMovie. No success in CS3 apps, which categorically refused to enter any glyphs that weren't more or less standard Latin. -

Firefox Chrome Showing ???? instead of International Characters
Hi,
I have a flash movie at this site
http://preview.tinyurl.com/5289rz
When you click on the rendered thumb nail (with a link
containing international characters) it takes you to a URL with
those same characters in IE 7 it displays international characters
and takes you to a correct page but in Firefox, Chrome and Opera
the international characters are displayed correctly in the flash
movie, but the URL turns those characters into question marks ????
and the pages shows a 404 not found error.
Firefox
http://www.site.com/video/??????_??????_???????_???????_???????_???_????????Does that mean we should ignore those millions of users
around the world that would be plain foolish. I am here to get this
problem solved not to be told to just ignore users who use other
browsers. -
Problem with the International characters u00E0, u00E8, u00EC, u00F2, u00F9
Dear Experts,
My requirement is to send data files from SAP to Hyperion(Data Warehouse Tool) via application server. Here few fields(can be material description/ Name/ Address) contain international characters like à, è, ì, ò, ù (this is an example). So I need to send their equivalent characters (i.e a, e, i , o, u) to Hyperion. that is when I create a file in application server characters a, e, i, o, u should
contain in the file.
I used ENCODING NON-UNICODE, UTF-8, DEFAULT but no use.
Pls assist me.
Thanks,
Dharmendra GaliIf you just have the couple of characters mentioned, use Jürgen's suggestion. Otherwise I'd recommend usage of SAP function module SCP_REPLACE_STRANGE_CHARS, which is much more comprehensive. Note that depending on your invocation though you might get multiple characters for some, e.g. ä to ae. To some degree you can control this, see my comments in Re: Removing diacritical (special & accented) characters in SAP.
Cheers, harald -
Jforum international characters problem
Hi all,
Has anyone used jforum (www.jforum.net)? It is an open source forum software
I am having problems with international characters.
Please let me know if you have had so I'll post my question.
Thank you.Hi,
So here is the problem. JFORUM is a very easy to use forum that can be set up within a short period of time. It is all nice UI configuration.
In admin control I reconfigure the forum to be in Russian.
When I store messages in DB and later on retrieve them they come up as question marks :(
I tried to alter the table but it did not work. Here is an example of one table:
create table jforum_posts_text
post_id int(11) not null default '0',
post_text text CHARACTER SET utf8,
post_subject varchar(100) default NULL,
primary key (post_id)
)engine=InnoDB default charset=utf8;Any ideas, help, suggestions?
Thank you. -
Displaying International Characters
Some users have been concerned about the fact that Buzzword
does not display some international characters - ranging from Greek
to Russian. This is accentuated by the fact that we have Buzzword
users in well over 100 countries.
The problem occurs when users attempt to insert some
international characters - say, the Greek letter omega - and
Buzzword instead displays a dot on the screen. Here's what's going
on, for anyone interested:
Like virtually all modern software, Buzzword adheres to the
Unicode standard, where characters are defined with 16 bits,
resulting in a total of over 65,000 possible characters.
However, unlike most desktop software, Buzzword must use
something called "embedded fonts". This means that we can't read
fonts off a user's computer, but instead we have to download fonts
from our server.
This is where our challenge begins. A font family contains
characters - called "glyphs" when drawn on the screen - for some
portion of the 65,000 possible characters defined by Unicode. Each
available character is downloaded as a small program containing
instructions on how to draw the glyph. The instructions are
relatively small, but each takes time to download - you can see
evidence of this in our "loading fonts" progress bar.
For Buzzword to load relatively quickly, we need to limit the
number of characters downloaded with each of our seven font
families. Most people use far fewer than 65,000 characters, so for
our first phase of deployment, we identified a couple hundred
characters to download for each font family. Because our initial
market focus was North America, we chose characters from Latin-1,
the Western European character set.
The result: when a user attempts to enter the Greek letter
omega, Buzzword recognizes the Unicode character but does not have
the downloaded instructions to display the glyph on the screen. The
little dot that is displayed instead is an indication that the
requested glyph has not been downloaded with the font set.. If the
user were to export the document to be read by a desktop program,
the glyph would probably be displayed using the computer's fonts.
Longer term, we'll handle this differently by downloading
fonts dynamically, based on the document's contents and a user's
settings. In the meantime, we apologize to everyone who uses
characters outside the Western European set. We will work to get
you a solution as soon as we possibly can.quote:
Like virtually all modern software, Buzzword adheres to the
Unicode standard, where characters are defined with 16 bits,
resulting in a total of over 65,000 possible characters.
Actually, Unicode (the standard) does not care about the
number of bits.
It has enough space to encode more than one million
characters, and the current version (Unicode 5.1) already encodes
more than 100,000 characters (
http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode5.1.0/)
quote:
Buzzword must use something called "embedded fonts".
Nothing prevents Flash/Flex from using fonts "html style".
In fact, Buzzword can add a "Generic sans-serif" font as an
option (font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;) with
zero effort.
The document will not look the same on all computers, but
this might be better than the current bullets.
So this is not a "must".
