posting chinese characters to website?
I'm trying to get chinese characters to show up on a site, but have no idea how to get it to work.

Right now, I have a few chinese characters in a Word document that I'd like to transfer to a web page. I believe I set the meta headers correctly for Chinese characters on a web page, and then tried some straight copy-to-notepad-and-upload-notepad, but didn't get the correct results.

Any advice?

interesting...
a few ideas:

do a google search for "njstar".

make sure that you appreciate the difference between Big5 and GB2312, and set character set accordingly.

try saving your word doc as html, and see if that gives you any insight.

go play on some chinese websites!

Presuming you have a chinese keyboard and software on your computer...

XL 2002 (Office XP) will save the html hex codes (绿湾 etc...) for any chinese charcters typed into it, when you save the sheet as html.

If you could get a copy of XL 2002 (or the use of it) then you could save the sheet as html, and paste the resulting codes into your web page.

The example of the hex codes didn't come out properly in the last post.

I'll try again with quotes around them;

"绿湾"

Third time lucky

"&#32511 &#28286"

each of the above codes should be terminated by a semi-colon.

Global IME also works
For those with something older than XP, you can install Microsoft's Global IME to get any number of character sets including Big 5.

You might want to make sure that you have the font MingLiU to be able to read Big 5.

Regarding spaces, and I know this is a kludge, while you are in Word you could do a search and replace for semicolons, replacing them with semicolon and a space, then Search/Replace for space period or comma to be replaced with just the period.

(I know nothing about Chinese punctuation, but suspect that we'll find out shortly.)

I'd love to find a better way than the Search and replace.

Cheers -- Tony
