That seems like a reasonable idea. The problem is, I'm not too sharp
on the PHP.
I think you might be onto something with the CSV thing though. I'm
going to try a couple things.
Thanks!

Hi,
This is just a thought, but could you export the file as a CSV and
use some kind of scripting language to generate an XML file - I may
be way off, but you could set language options for PHP which might
mean you are reading in the same charset as you are writing???
I don't have any experience of dealing with language stuff in PHP,
but it was an idea...

OK... I think I've reached the end of the internet as well as the

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!
