I tried it at http://www26.brinkster.com/leorat2/forum/ and it did not work in any language. Some questions:
1. What exact version do you use (did you apply any patches)? I'm asking this, because the *'s are there (should be removed with patches)
2. Did you ever made changes to code?
3. Did you fill the Admin part with correct values?

You can send me post.asp, pop_preview.asp for me to look at and/or upgrade me to admin temporarily to make a check the admin part.

Btw: Thank you for the language file .

Wooooops...
Removed * in lang1033.asp and uploaded to Brinkster....and now getting this and cannot start FORUM

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0401'

Expected end of statement

/leorat2/forum/Lang1033.asp, line 139

strLangAdmin_Config_Colors00030 = "Font/Table Color Code Configuration" "Font/Table Color Code Configuration"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------^

What wrong with this one?

BOZDEN, I sent a zip containing all "touched asp files"

I guess I cannot do anything about giving you a tempoary Admin access for now.....

Thanks

Good to hear this.

One question: How can I work with your files you sent to me (what editor, encoding do you use). I'm a total newbee to utf-8 .

Think PinkPost v40b03 Patches

Well, I am not a unicode/utf-8 expert...I guess our resident unicode expert is Dixon. Check our dialogues on getting Forum format on utf-8 at http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=22114...you will see some interesting discussions there.

One problem of having national encoding schemes - Shift-JIS, etc. for Japanese, rather than unicode, is that particular char representation will appear totally corrputed in different encoding enabled browser view...but if it is in unicode all different chars can be reprented (like my default i2AsiaForum page...) ...I found that installing Langxxx.asp as is will set Forum representation subject to this problem.

I recently found this editor, EMeditor, which support various types of encoding schemes as well languages..and quite flexible and extensive. This is nice for a guy like me start re-learning a bit about scripting... For editing asp files, I have been using both NotePad2002 and this editor... Check http://www.emurasoft.com for downloading EMeditor3.


Thanks,
LeoRat

<====Dixon has deployed a multiple web enviornment using all existing languge packs - see http://www.websitetrans.com/translators/forums2002/
which is very nice for a forum testing whose Forum design concept is very much like globalized web site that I was involved in, but again, there is a major difference between the web site publishing model and BBS model, which is close to auction or other transaction model...for handling multilingual content/messages. I am quite impressed with what you did. You did a tremendous job in internatinalizing Snitz Forum architecture. Since it is already a single globalized dynamic database driven forum, I sense an inssue is handling front end "presentation" side of Forum on web....so my question above.
