Character Set (for language-viewing problem) - SP1
1.0
This version is for YaBB 1 Gold - SP1.
Cannot view YaBB in other language than English? You may found the same problem with me, try my mod :-)
When I upgrade my YaBB board from 'YaBB 1 Gold - Release' to 'YaBB 1 Gold - Service Pack 1' I found that this new version is not support my language, Thai, as it always view in English encoding and I must change the language encoding to Thai for every page manually. The problem is on both IE and Netscape.
At first I think the problem can be solved with the tag, but I was all wrong.
To solve the problem, you must set the 'charset' in HTTP header with the character set you prefered. Example, for my language, Thai, I set it to TIS-620.
I got this solution from friendly boardadmin of the board I often visit, Giga Dragon of www.smnforum.com, thanks to him :-)
NOTE:
- You can set the character-set through the 'Forum Preferences and Settings' section of the Admin Center.
- This setting is OPTIONAL. Leave blank for this setting does not harm your board, it acts as this mod is not installed :-)
