I am off for some arabic UTF-8 xml tests this week-end. I will let
you know what I come up with.

Yes, I would've thought that when using UTF-8 it would go just
fine? It's good to know. What about Flash

Hello again,
You mean having a XML file saved (and encoded) as UTF-8 does not
handle it ?
Isn't UTF-8 intended for such ?
(and what if you put the Arabic parts in CDATA tags) ?
maybe this could help

I am insisting ,because I had to do some tests for a client that
wanted to have an arabic version of his company website.
I did tests with simple XML, UTF-8 encoded, and Arabic sentences in
CDATA tags.
I have copy / pasted arabic from an internet page the client
provided, saved the XML,
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
Here we usually dont embed the text in the textfield, and grab the
text from XML or you when you embed the font with code, include all
the unicode codes of the arabic chars you need. And do use fonts that
support Arabic like Arial, Verdana and i think Times New Roman
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
This is probably a stupid question - but does it matter?
By which I mean - it may flip RTL text so that it's LTR in the XML
file, but when it actually gets to the screen, is it still flipped?
Can you control the flipping in the display on the screen, rather than
worrying about it in the XML file?
The fonts are coming through fine. I have all the characters I need
embedded in the library (using Arial Unicode MS). Characters display
properly. It's the order of words in the XML file that I'm having a
problem with.
Thanks for any help. Much appreciated.

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!

I just finished developing an english website, with arabic (
http://www.nakheelharbour.com/).
Actually the arabic isnt ready due the complications I found in my way. I
tried a lot of things... Load xmls with arabic text, load css to align to
right, use system fonts, embedding fonts, etc etc etc.
Not a stupid question @Ian.
It's not a matter of each individual character reversing the order.
If it were I could convert the string to an array and reorder it ah la:
var myCharity_L2R:String = myXML.ARB.CHARITY;
var myCharity_R2L:String = myCharity_L2R.split().reverse().join();

Actually the arabic isnt ready due the
OT but could you open the XLS and take a snapshot of the text, and
then send to your client, to check if it is correct.
Then, if ok, could you copy / paste this text into another document
(like word, txt, xml) and take snapshots in order to send them to
your client ?
I find 'the order of

It is weird and crazy.I know it's happening, so there's no need to
show the client.
PS I haven't taken hallucinogens in quite sometime so I'm ruling out
a Flashback. Other people see it too.

I did see that. The problem with that is it's not XML. When I try to
wrap any of the translations in tags, the words shift order. It has
to have something to do with mixing Eastern and Western characters. I
think it's tied to the alignment. Since Arabic is right justified, it
I have the same problem I tried everything but I couldn't solve the text
broken at the end of the of the line
If anybody know how to solve this problem please let me know it's know years
