Your database or your programming language should provide the sorting mechanism, or you should implement sorting yourself (as a database engine plug-in if it supports it, or in the programming language if it doesn't). We already have solutions for C, PHP, and PostgreSQL, but all are Linux-only, or possibly Cygwin (port of GNU tools to Windows). How do you represent these fields in HTML or ASP pages (converting them to HTML entity code dynamically, saving their entity codes, or whatever else)? As far as I can tell, you HTML doesn't have any notion of fields. If you mean the letters Peh, Gaf, Farsi Yeh, etc, they can be referenced in HTML pages as #x+hexcode+;. Farsi Yeh becomes #x06cc;, for example. roozbeh ___ FarsiWeb mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/farsiweb

GNOME's 'gedit' support Persian, and also some of the KDE text editors (I can't remember which do). The Persian keyboard layout is also included in Red Hat 8.0 if you install it, but you may need to install fonts of your own, which you may get from your Windows fonts directory, or download some from: http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/ I also have a post about enabling the Persian keyboard in Red Hat 7.3's KDE at: http://lists.sharif.edu/pipermail/farsikde/2002-June/000369.html But I don't know if exactly the same procedure will work with Red Hat 8.0. roozbeh ___ FarsiWeb mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/farsiweb

Re: [farsiweb]unicode fields in database
I guess for sorting you would just need to write a few lines of code. It would not be too difficult. - Original Message - From: Naqashzade, Sadeq To: Zurvan Sent: Thursday, November 07, 2002 5:27 PM Subject: Re: [farsiweb]unicode fields in database Salaam, What about persian sort? is it correct?

Re: [farsiweb]unicode fields in database
I took a look at your site (YazdIndustry.com). Very impressive. Do you require sorting when displaying the results ofa search? I know MySQL does not sometimes, for example, distinguish between letters with diactritics and the ones without, like  and A or â and a.What I have doneto make sure MySQL does not makethese kinds of mistakes is to save the Persian words in 2 different ways. One using the 1256 format and the other using a regular font. This way when youdo asearch for a word you will have to check 2 entries if needed.Forsorting you could use the font entries since they aremostly inASCII characters. All these problems with the Arabic script makes mea believer in changing our alphabet to a Latin-based one and getting rid of all these unnecessary headaches :-) Dr. Z. - Original Message - From: Naqashzade, Sadeq To: FK Sent: Thursday, November 07, 2002 6:22 PM Subject: Re: [farsiweb]unicode fields in database No it is not. this is not PHP problem, I think it is MySQL problem that not support unicode. You can write a simple code to select the rows but never you will get soreted result in right order :-( I did not test it on Windows Server.
