Hi everyone,

I'm currently a bit confused.. I've successfully setup the XOOPS system and all modules I need.. and now encountered a problem which i couldn't figure out in the last few hours..
If I set in "General Settings" (in System prefs) the site's language to English all articles in Japanese are displayed like a mess. If I switch the language to Japanese everything is displayed correctly again...
The meta tags (language, content) are (if I got it right) set by selecting the site's main language.
COuld anyone give me a hint on how to solve the problem (displaying the Japanese articles correctly even if the site's main language is set to English) ?

Any clues, hints, comments and of course will will be greatly appreciated...


Cheers,

johnd0e

You could try this :

edit language/english/global.php file

change these lines to :

//%%%%% LANGUAGE SPECIFIC SETTINGS %%%%%
define('_CHARSET', 'EUC-JP');
define('_LANGCODE', 'ja');

// change 0 to 1 if this language is a multi-bytes language
define("XOOPS_USE_MULTIBYTES", "1");

And set XOOPS to English

After I got everything working (thanks to your tip) I encountered another problem which is a bit strange.
When adding an article / calendar even (or anything else) using Safari everything works fine, the article is correctly displayed in nearly every browser (Safari, Firefox, Mozilla (Mac/Linux), opera (Mac/Linux)), BUT NOT in M$ Internet Explorer 5.2.3 (Mac). If I use M$ IE on the other hand to post the article (or whatever), it is displayed correctly in IE, but not in the other browsers....

Any ideas/hints/comments/help would be greatly appreciated...


Cheers,
