Hi all,
I have been asked to convert a English JSP website to international such as
Mexico, France, UK.
Can someone please tell me how to do the following or where to read more
info on them:
We use Oracle - all the data will be stored in the same DB
1. what character set to use? Unicode? Fixed length multi-byte? Set the
NLS_Language to English and NLS_Territory to US? Will the character set
take care of all the languages?
2. date format - do I store the dates in the US format - convert what the
user enter to US date format and store them, or store them as is? Display
in the Locale format of course, but do I store in 1 format? (US)
3. number format - store as number and format according to Locale?
4. currency - store in US currency? convert local currency to US currency
using current exchange rate at the time of transaction?
5. what else should I be concerned about?
Thanks
