Localisation to Swedish

Hello there,

I have looked at the forums here, read the TextBook, and even consulted MySQL’s site but I am not finding an explanation on how to do Swedish localisation. I normally use html entities for this which tends to work well i.e. <code>&aring;</code> looks like å.

Do I have to change the database or the web pages?

I am running MySQL with character_set assigned latin1 and index.php has this in its headers;
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”> <html xmlns=“http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml” xml:lang=“en” lang=“en”> <head> <meta http-equiv=“content-type” content=“text/html; charset=utf-8” />

What must be done to render äöå on the page?

Thanks for any feed back.

Re: Localisation to Swedish

Use utf-8 encoding on your pages. Then you won’t have to mess with entities.
Btw.. this localisation stuff is about translating Textpattern interface to different languages. Swedish is already done.
