Hello there,
After searching endlessly on the Internet and reading the manuals I'm still
a bit lost as to how to solve this problem I'm having.
I recently acquired a new dedicated server and have installed PHP 4.3.1 with
multi-byte enabled. I'm trying to translate a forum called vbulletin into
EUC-JP. I'd like to do Shift_JIS but I don't think it will work when users
type in their messages. The Japanese seems to come out garbled. I saw a
vbulletin forum at http://sb.xrea.com/ that uses EUC-JP very well and I'd
love to know how they did it.
Anyway, I'm not sure how to configure my php.ini file to correctly set up
my server for EUC-JP. Here is what I've done thus far. Is this correct?
--enable-mbstring
--enable-mbstr-enc-trans
--enable-mbregex
output_buffering = Off
default_charset = EUC-JP
mbstring.language = Japanese
mbstring.encoding_translation = On
mbstring.http_input = auto
mbstring.http_output = EUC-JP
mbstring.internal_encoding = EUC-JP
mbstring.substitute_character = none
For Apache I did the following in httpd.conf:
LanguagePriority jp en
AddCharset EUC-JP .euc
AddCharset ISO-2022-JP .jis
AddCharset SHIFT_JIS .sjis
AddLanguage jp .jp
For my HTML headers I added the following Meta tags:
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=x-euc-jp">
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=euc-jp">
Is there anything else I need to do to ready my server for EUC-JP? Do I
need to add anything to my PHP script files or to Mysql?
Basically I live in Japan and wish to provide an opportunity for people to
write in Japanese and English on my vbulletin forum similar to the site
stated above. I'd really love to get this going so I'm hoping someone out
there could offer some help with this if possible, or point me in the right
direction.
Thanks,
Jim
