#22644 [Opn->Fbk]: language specific content-encoding

ID: 22644 Updated by: goba@php.net -Summary: Language preference trouble Reported By: ulysses at mail dot fitan dot com dot tw -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Website problem Operating System: MacOS PHP Version: 4.3.1 New Comment: The CSS file and the accept language setting is not connected. You said it's a nice feature to have the accept language honored, so you don't have a problem with it. So I renamed the bug :) We do print out language specific Content-Type headers. See http://www.php.net/source.php?url=/include/shared-manual.inc for yourself (look for the sendManualHeaders function). I can check this by visiting http://php.net/zh/echo (which is the Chinese echo page), and I got a notice that I don't have that charset installed. We do have a problem with the CSS files, which does seem to be overriden by browsers, as different charsets require different fonts... You asked us to specify the charset *or* langauge dependent CSS files. We do the first. Then what is the problem? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-03-11 20:17:17] ulysses at mail dot fitan dot com dot tw php.net now recept ACCEPT_LANG parameter and display specified language keywords. That's a nice feature. But you also specified all font-family in style.css as Verdana. That's not good. Verdana is a font with Western language character set. If you do not specify content-type=text/html with charset setting to correct character set (big5, gb2312, shift-jis...), users who use Chinese (zh, zh-TW) or Japaness (ja) as the top of accept-languages will not be able to view the contents with some browsers. Please add charset, or please use language-specified CSS file. BTW, I'm reporting PHP.net website problem, this bug reporting should not ask me for PHP version. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22644&edit=1
