Hi all, I'm from China and recently I am studying turbogears so that I might use it in my next commercial project. Actually it is not likely that my boss allow me to use turbogears in that project because very few people in China have heard of Python , not to speak of turbogears.
So it's most because of my personal interest in Python that made me wrote this. Hope it will help people from countries where people don't speak English. And hope u can point out my mistakes. Each mail while be short, but I will keep replying to this thread frequently. TIP 1. ~~~~ If you want to use VIM(or other text editors) to edit a kid file, set encoding=utf-8, or the characters other than English would cause problems. I thought it might because that kid could only process utf-8 strings. TIP 2. ~~~~ If a column might contains non utf-8 characters, define it like this in model.py UnicodeCol(dbEncoding = "gb2312") BTW: It seems CatWalk doesn't recognize this and keepet me from adding data that contains Chinese. TIP 3. ~~~~ You want to use standard widgets but you found it doesn't work with Chinese! Than you should add this at the top of your code # -*- coding: gb2312 -*- And then add a u before any string that contains Chinese Character. BTW: I've tried to change the whole source file to utf-8 encoded to save the problem of add lot of 'u's, but it doesn't work. TIP 4. ~~~~ Something interesting. If u have ever tried the 20 minutes wiki tutorial, run it and type something like this in your browser's address box. http://localhost:8080/一些中文字符 Press Enter. As the page does not exist, you will reach the edit Page. Input some text and then save. Oops! Something wrong happened but if you check the database you will see a new page has been added. So my suggestion is that try to avoid include any Characters other than English in the URLs of your project. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
