Hi, I want to develop website using cakephp in Chinese and English
using utf8 encoding I am trying to use cakephp 1.2 version, I have
been searching around the web on the docs on i18n, but it is rather
scatter, below are a few problems where I have difficulties, hopefully
anyone can help me, thank you
1." .po files should be encoded using ISO-8859-1", this is a nightmare
maintenance for Chinese character, reason being once it is in
iso-8859-1 format, if you want to change any messages, the messages
cannot be seen easily, example 我 is me in chinese, but if you store it
in ISO-8859-1 encoding it is \u6211, hence it becomes very hard to
hunt down the words in message file, but it will be different if it is
store in UTF8 encoding, as the Chinese character can be store, edit,
view naturally as it is, anyone can highlight any solution to this ?
like A good editor to convert these eastern characters to the correct
encoding, or making cakephp read utf8 encoding po file?
2. Another problem , take an example a product table that has
id, title and description field
there is a product in english and chinese, how do you with the chosen
language pick up the correct product in database in that language,
other than using another lookup table.
3. Lastly is the error message for validation of users inputs, I
search the new Forms built in helper, doesnt seem to tell us how to
show the different language depending on the user locale
4. I am thinking also does caching actually works with i18n, reason
being you execute
$this->L10n = new L10n();
$this->L10n->get("en");
Configure::write('Config.language', "en");
, but let say you have the webpage cache seperately english and
chinese, how does it recognize which one to pickup?
