Evening everyone, I have ran into a bit of a problem which I can;t really debug or replicate by myself in my dev environment or on live website...
I have developed a Thai language website for a client. The app runs on CF8 + MySQL 5 and is configured for UTF-8 on both ends. All my tests of entering data via the admin area have and are working fine... However, when the client enters data it all goes into the db and then back to screen as boxes instead of Thai characters.... The twist on the issue is: the client is an all-Macs company, while I develop and host in Win-based environment, and I do not currently have a Mac to test things on (my wife with her MB is in Koh Samui at the moment... lucky her...) I suspect the issue has to do with the fonts available on the client's Macs and the ones the website has been designed with (further twist here - I am only doing CF and db part of the work on this site, the client has a Thai-based company doing the actual designs/stylesheets), but I am not 100% sure. Fron what I can see in the stylesheets, the main font used on the site is "MS Sans Serif", + 2 more Thai fonts of which I have never heard before and my googling has not revealed much more (apart from a few web pages all in Thai, which I unfortunately do not read)... Internationalization and encodings guru Paul Hastings, or anyone else with experience with Thai language input in cross-platform environment - any thoughts/ideas/questions? Ti re-iterate once more - everything is working just fine when the site is accessed from Win-based computers. Macs seem to have a problem at least with data entry part (the front-end is not finished yet, so I do not know if Macs have a problem displaying db data in front-end, but in the back-end they definitely do...)
