Non english characters innavigation menu like "ä" on others servers then .m

In iLife06 iWeb used insane names on html files when I used non engelsh characters.
In iLife08 it keeps the characters like Frågor.html but it does not work when running on a non-.Mac server.
The generated file is:
Frågor.html
The problem is when you have a item in the navigation bar,
The request get translated to :
Fr%C3%A5gor.html
And you get the error message:
The requested URL /FrÃ¥gor.html was not found on this server.
I tried to change the name in iWeb to Fragor and then correct it in the file Feed.xml (so the user would read the corract name) but then I just get Fr?gor
I tried to pu .htacces file in rott on my server directory with the UTF-( comamnd but nothing works.
Except for the navigation meny I can get around it.
Help!

Could you provide your url?
It seems like things should work if you change to Fragor and then republish and reupload.
If your server won't accept these kinds of names, it may not be possible to have them presented totally correctly to the viewer.
Some other ideas:
A utility for fixing filenames with accented characters is available here.

You might try putting an .htaccess file in your web space with the entry "SecFilterEngine Off" and/or "SecFilterCheckUnicodeEncoding Off" and "SecFilterCheckURLEncoding Off" (without quotes).

Non-English characters

Hello, I have read several times that since Java uses Unicode, it solves the problems of non-English characters automatically or something like that.
But my app is not working as expected. Would someone help please?
I have a client/server combo written in Java. The server can send messages in English or Japanese. The Japanese messages are hard-coded as String literals in the server source code. On the client side, they are displayed on a JEditorPane. But the Japanese characters are all garbled. The OS on the server side and client side are, of course, different.
My supposition, which is obviously wrong as it is not working, is that since both ends of communication are Java app, I need not worry about any encoding conversions for String literals.
Suggest me what is wrong here?

How is the required encoding/decoding supposed to be done?
When I didn't worry about non-English characters, I did the following, which WORKED.
// SENDER side
Socket socket ;
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream(),true);
String outMessage = "my message";
out.println(outMessage);//RECEIVER
Socket socket ;
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));
String inMessage = in.readLine();When non-English characters are involved, I did the following, which DID NOT WORK. Please someone correct me.
// SENDER side
Socket socket ;
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream(),true);
String outMessage = "my message";
String utfString = new String(outMessage.getBytes(),"UTF-8");
out.println(utfString);//RECEIVER
Socket socket ;
InputStreamReader ins = new InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream(),"UTF-8");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(ins);
String inMessage = in.readLine();The received message is still garbled.

Non english characters in DN cannot be retrieved

We are using Netscape directory server 4, protocal V3. We have a problem related to non-english characters appearing in RDN.
We publish to Ldap entries using the values from database. For example, we have pubulished an entry to Ldap, based on DB values, the entry should have a DN like: ou=Liege BELGIUM ... LGG1a, <other components of DN>. However, when we call netscape search API (search against uid attribute which does not have non-english characters), the search return the entry, but when further call getDN() method on the returned Ldap Entry, it only returns Li, instead of the complete DN value.
It seems the entry is corrupted in Ldap. I wanted to delete the corrupted entry and re create new one to test. I tried many ways, but none of them worked, I think it is because DN is corrupted, there is no key value to identify the Ldap entry for any operation(modify, delete).
You help and insights are much appreciated.
Thanks.
Han Shen

LDAP uses the UTF8 encoding. You must store data in the directory using the UTF8 encoding. This includes DN values. This also means that if you want to be able to view the values in your native character set and font, you must use an application that can convert the UTF8 LDAP data back to the native character encoding. The directory console by default should work for LATIN-1 (ISO 8859) languages if the LOCALE is set correctly.

Non English characters in BIP email

Hi, my report contains Japanese characters, when I view the output in HTML format. It is displayed properly. But when I click on send button , enter email parameters like to, cc, bcc, subject , etc and send it, in the mail I receive, the japanese characters are not getting displayed properly. The same problem occurs for spanish and portugese texts-in general to all non english characters. I am using Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher Release 10.1.3.4. If someone has faced a similar issue, kindly help. Thanks in advance

Suggestions
1) Try with NLS_LANG as
SWEDISH_SWEDEN.WE8DEC
2) Make a paramform and enter via paramform (unencoded)
(This is just for testing purpose)
3) Change machine locale to swedish and try
4) Which reports version is this ?

How to retrieve non-english characters from a query

Hello,
My apologies if this post is not in its proper place, but I was a bit confused where to add it.
I'm running a query using SQL Developer on a table which contains several companies names from many different countries, and one of the checks I need to make to ensure data consistency is to search for all rows which the name of company contains special or non-english characters (like ç, ã, ä as example).
I don't know what can I use to do this. I tried to collate using NLS_SORT but it didn't work.
Is there someway to select only the rows that contain these special or non-english characters, excluding from the results the rows that only have english characters? Please have in mind that we have many languages in this table.
The field I would like to make the conditions on is VARCHAR2.
Please let me know if there is any extra information I should provide you so that you can help me.
Thank you in advance for the help.
Regards,
Luís

Encoding non english characters with utf 8 on jsp (Critical!!)

I am inserting hebrew characters from JSP into oracle db and everything is fine until this point. But when I try to retrieve the information from the database, the characters are not displayed properly (I get some garbage characters). I am sure that the data stored in the database is correct, but not sure why there is a problem in displaying the data in the JSP.
I came across a thread on TSS
http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=28944
and followed the suggestions given there like having
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8" %>
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">and also this
<%
//Some JDBC and sql statement query UTF-8 data and then ...
String str = rs.getString("utf8_data");
str = new String(str.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"),"UTF-8");
%>
<%= str %>Now, the data getting displayed is partly correct, I mean to say, some characters are still coming as squares.
Any ideas will be of great help.

even i doubt the database charset for this issue. But what I dont understand is how only certain hebrew characters are getting stored properly and why others are corrupted?
Also, can anyone let me know how i can view the Non-English characters present in the database directly, as TOAD is not able to display them

Only VBA does not recognize non-English characters

Hello guys,
I have a new laptop with Windows 8.1 bought in the USA and I'm having a difficulties with Excel VBA (Office 365 University-64x bought in the Czech Republic - Central Europe). The VBA does not recognize non-English characters (particularly "ř" and
"ů") which causes me problem when running some codes that I wrote earlier on my previous laptop (Windows 7, bought in the Czech Republic with the same Office).
The problem with non-English characters has occurred only in VBA so far, otherwise I can use these characters normally in Excel cells, Word... I tried to install both English and Czech version of the Office with no change, I also installed Czech proofreading
tools and set everything to Czech in the Office. The location and language preferences in the Windows are also set up to Czech. And it is not a problem of a font. I also mentioned that when I tried to look up these characters, using Ctrl+F, it changes
original ř to r after a search and again this is only an issue of the VBA.
Thank you very much for any help.
Tom

Hi Tom,
VBA for Excel can only recognize ASCII code from 0 to 255, if you use other special characters like "ř" or "ů", it will returns 63(?) to you. To use this kind of characters, you have to utilize ChrW function to parse a decemal to the
character.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee177465.aspx
for example, the hex code and dec code for these two characters are as below:
Hex   Dec
ř 159   345
ů 016F 367
So to get these two characters in VBA, you could code as below:
ChrW(&H159) or ChrW(345)
ChrW(&H16F) or ChrW(367)
You can get the hex code of the character by searching in the system character map(in the Win8.1 start view, search "character map"), then convert the hex code to decimal code by yourself.
Range("A1").Value = ChrW(&H159) & ChrW(&H16F)
Range("A1").Value = ChrW(345) & ChrW(367)

Non-english characters in sqlplus

Friends,
9.0.1,10.2.0.1
CAn the non-english characters be displayed in sqlplus prompt?
I have to print the data with some hindi charcaters like name from the report generated via proc.
What is teh workaround for this?
Thanks

Hi,
I have RH Linux 7.3.
Here is my situation.
I have some tables that have some columns.In these columns i need to store data in hindi.
The database character set(nls_characterset) is US7ASCII.
The datatypes of the columns is varchar2 type.
The tables are accessed through Pro*c and the proc code generates the report.
The data in these reports needs to be printed out and the corresponding data has to be in hindi.
So i have to do two things
1) On query the tables, the user should see hindi data along with english data.
2) The printed report should also contain hindi data.
Questions:
1) If i change the charcater set by the command:
alter database character set AL32UTF8;
and OS locale to UTF-8
Would these chnages solve the purpose?
2) Or do i need to recreate the database with AL32UTF8 and exp/imp all the data?
3)Any other advice/option?
Thanks

Formula to show non english characters from clob in crystal report

Hi
I am using the database Oracle 11g with a field clob in one of the table that i want to show in the crystal report
But the problem is when i put the clob field in crystal report it is outputting the results perfectly for English characters but not for the Arabic ones and returning the string like (¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿)
so is there any way to show the arabic (non english) characters perfectly on crystal report with clob field

Hi Azeem,
Make sure the arabic font should install in your system.
Try this:
Create a text field in your Crystal Report (a label).
Place Arabic characters into that field (just by typing them into it on the report definition).
Run the report. If they display correctly then its probably not Crystal, but rather would point to an issue in the data retrieval and supply to Crystal via your dataset (or whatever datasource you are using).
If they don't display - then its definitely Crystal.

Display non-english characters in its own corresponding language in excel

Hello Experts,
I have description texts in chinese and other languages which is visible properly in the debugger in my internal table.
After downloading the data into an excel sheet into my file path, when opened the non-english description is displayed as ####
Please help me in displaying the non-english descriptions in the excel sheet in its own corresponding language.

Hello Vasanth,
Please explain about what did you mean by 'Last Button in SAP screen'
Well, to re-iterate my problem, I have data retrieved from SAP database that has values of multi languages which is displaying properly in the internal table as checked in the debugger.
After the execution of FM 'GUI_DOWNLOAD', when i open the file from my desktop, the non-english characters like the chinese and japanese are each character is displaying in HASH symbol.

Wrong sorting of non-English characters (iTunes 11.2)

Since version 11.2 of iTunes, there is a problem with sorting of names with non-English characters (such as ž, š, č, ř or other in Czech). It seems that iTunes completely omits these characters when sorting. As an example, I have Čajkovskij (which is the Czech spelling of Tchaikovsky) among artists in my library and it is currently sorted between Adele and Alan Parsons Project, i.e. it seems that the character Č has been completely omitted while sorting and thus the artist is sorted as Ajkovskij.
All my ID3 tags are of version 2.3 and in Unicode, thus this should not be any encoding problem. I even tried to change the ID3 tags to version 2.4, i.e. UTF-8, and it did not help.
I think that there must be many more people experiencing this problem. Not everyone has only English or ASCII names in the library and I am surprised that I could not find anything on this bug anywhere on the net yet.
Thanks for any help on this.

Looks like a bug in the latest build. See this recent thread.
You could report the problem via iTunes Feedback or sign up for a free Apple Developer Connection account and make use of Apple Bug Reporter.

Missing/corrupted non-english characters in Preview

I know there have been posts on this recently, but this is such a significant problem that I thought it worth keeping live.
Preview does not display non-english characters in PDFs properly. Things like greek characters are either displayed as the english equivalent or are missing or something else more bizzare. This happens on my MBP and my partners MB, both running Leopard. Acrobat, Word etc have no problems. I had no issues with Tiger
I would like to report this directly to Apple but I couldn't find how...

Predictive text non-English characters to be made ...

I just filled an enhancement request on this feature, please vote for it HERE:
Predictive text non-English characters to be made optional
The story is: while using predictive text for non-English languages (Polish in my case) the dictionary words are grammar correct which include special characters like: ą,ę,ć,ś,ż,ź,ó,ł etc. For texting (SMS) operators count these as 3 characters making a message much longer than it looks. Therefore I can tell you no one uses these characters while texting and people use EN only characters instead a,e,c,s,z,o,l... which makes using the predictive text useless for eg Polish language.
I'd like to have an option to switch using these non-en chars off for predicting text, which is grammatically not correct but in real life that's how people type.
So basically if there's an option to disable lang specific characters I would be getting an example suggestion of 'Prosze' instead of grammatically correct 'Proszę'. 'Prosze' is a 6 character word, 'Proszę' is a 5+3=8 character word. Considering a single SMS message a 300 chars, than it really makes a difference.
Simple solution would be to replace every char ą with a, ć with c, ó with o etc... in each word suggested for the ones who have this option enabled.

HI,
You can write a code in PAI of main screen. there by using loop at screen you can make that field editable or disabled.
Code sample:
loop at screen.
****condition for value check
if screen-name = 'TEXT_EDIT_NAME'
screen-output = 1.
screen-input = 0.
modify screen.
endif.
endloop.
Hope this will help you.

I have non English characters showing up.

This morning I wanted to make a change in my Security & Privacy settings and when prompted to authenticate the dialogue box contained non-English characters. Even the OK button appeared to be in Chinese are the like.
Any ideas welcome. OS X 10.8.1

I'ts not all of the text though. It's just the authentication popup that asks you for your password when you want to unlock the padlock to make changes. It comes up with "System Preferences" then two lines of non-english characters followed by "Type your password to allow this". Then of course you have the Name and Password text fields. The Cancel button is normal and the what would normally be the OK button, is in non-english text.
Everything else system-wide is fine.
It's got me...
