International Support - Hebrew

Hi!
I changed the charset and it works ok ... But there is a problem on the popup editor window, the charset there isn't write and I can't see Hebrew ... How can I fix that?

Thanks,
Guy.

Hi Guy,
I understand that you can read Hebrew characters but can't read them after saving the text file with the editor. Please insert these lines at the top of the script:

Response.CharSet = "ISO-8859-8"
Session.CodePage = 1255

Let me know the result.

Hi again.
It didn't work.

Usually to add support for ASP files I just add:
...

It works for the main Web Explorer page but no for the Editor popup page ... I see there Gibrish instead of Hebrew ...

Thanks,
Guy.

Your forum didn't shoe my text:
Language=VBScript codepage="1255"

and meta:
HTTP-EQUIV="CONTENT-TYPE" CONTENT="TEXT/HTML; CHARSET=WINDOWS-1255"

It's strange because I think IE (6.0) doesn't recognize the character set name "ISO-8859-8" as Hebrew but "WINDOWS-1255" works ok. Which character set is selected on "Encoding" menu when you right-click on the editor window?

Hi!

I choose: Hebrew (Windows)

I think that it is the charset "windows-1255"

Can you send me some text in Hebrew so that I can test it?
Cem Alacayir 11/4/2002 2:06 PM
Sure:

And by the way I can see this hebrew post correctly ...

Hi Guy,
I have added Unicode support for dealing with text files written in international languages and sent it to you by email. You only have to set the new constant "useUnicode" to true for Hebrew, you don't need to set the character set or the codepage as they are set to unicode by default. 
Thanks for your report. Please send me feedback.
