I'm trying to figure out a way to get the language and character set from a browser, without having to ask the user. I can get the language from the $HTTP_SERVER_VARS, but i'm having a lot of difficulty getting the character set. Any suggestions? The code is also going to into my phpDNS project, as i've realized that I can take the time to design a proper i18n system for it at the start, and avoid problems that might cause later, and i can bring some of the experience into getting phpMyAdmin nicely multi-lingual with foreign character sets. Also, in my reading on character sets, I have come across several documents that point out if you explictly specify a font that does not contain good characters for a foreign character set, some browsers will fail to render the foreign text correctly, because they look at the font instead of the character set setting. This may end up being the fix we were looking for the Thai not rendering. -- --- Robin Hugh Johnson "Robbat2" QTOD: "I used to be an idealist, but I got mugged by reality."
