What workflow issues have people run into going with this method?
Do you use the ip-to-country database to do the auto redirects to localized URLs?
Also I noticed previously that someone mentioned it was important to save word files in Unicode format at the translation end. Why is this important if I can open any word file on my end and save it as Unicode - besides we'd just be copying and pasting text anyway, or am I missing some large concept?
Thanks for any tips, Ketan

why not to stick with UTF-8 and UTF-16 for Chinese?

I read this entire article, then changed the first meta tag on a test page to be:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
then I went to the Chinese translation of Joel's page and cut and pasted
some Chinese characters into my html page, saved it, and loaded it in IE
expecting to see Chinese side by side to my English text. Nope. Still
gibberish. What did I do wrong?
