[pmwiki-users] Internationalization

[Ying Zhao]

Thanks for the replies.

The reason that I asked about internationalization is that my ISP does not 
have mbstring module installed. So I would like to know how hard is to get 
this module installed. I am currently using the "change content" receipe as 
a workaround to support Simplified Chinese. However, there is anonying bug 
there, which turns some characters into garbage.

Does anyone have other suggestion I should try?

Thanks,

would strongly recommend planning to use UTF-8. The principle

<br>&gt;languages severely.<br>&gt;<br>&gt;Just some input from a
