OK... I think I've reached the end of the internet as well as the end
of my patients.
I've been trying to figure out a way to take translations that I've
received in an Excel spreadsheet and paste them into an XML document.
The XML is UTF-8 and it's plain text (of course). No matter what
editor (Flex Builder 3, Dreamweaver, Text Edit, WordPad, NotePad,
Word, etc.) or OS (OSX 10.4, Windows XP) or combination of the two,
it seems that when I try to combine the eastern translation with
western markup (XML tags, or even western characters for that
matter), as soon as I drop in a single character, if flips the
orientation of the translated Arabic text?!?
Everything that I find on the internet leads me hopeful down a path
of ultimate disappointment. I know that I'm not the only one with
this problem and I'm sure one of you has experienced this. Please let
me in on you secrets. I beg you...
Let me just clarify—My problem is not font related (I've got that all
sorted out), and for the most part it's not really Flash related
(except for the fact that I'm using this XML content for dynamic text
fields). this list is probably not the proper place for this
question, but I'm out of options and I thinking that I'm going to
have to scrap some of the digging I've done in relation to getting
text to display properly and make alterations to my application to
load images instead of live type.
Somebody... Anybody.... Help a brotha out!
