I built a site in 2 languages (port and english). How can one automatically redirect a vistor to a specific language? I know this can be done, but have no clue how to do it or if sites built with Easy Web Editor can do it.
Then you should find on the Web a "language detect and redirect" Javascript, and insert it into the first page of your English website. If it will detect a Portuguese browser, it will activate a redirection to http://www.yoursite.com/por/
I don't know JS so I can't write it, but if you do a search on the Web you'll find the Javascript for this, as it is a common requirement.
To insert the script, just use "Insert >HTML". Maybe you can post the script here, once you've found it

Well, I found the script listed bellow. I suppose now one has to Insert\Html or Instert\Java Script after modifying the references for the pages and it is here that I still have a difficulty: from what I understand from the script, the reference of the english page is "english.html", likewise portuguese is "portuguese.html". What shoud I replace this with? I tried in EasyWeb naming one page "Portugese" and anoter "English" and replacing in the script for "portuguese.htm" and "english.htm" but in the browser preview I got a "page not found" error. I tried replacing with "dirigeste-000001.htm" ("dirigeste" is the name of the page: dirigest.aeh) but got the same error. Any ideas ?
<!-- ONE STEP TO INSTALL LANGUAGE:
1. Copy the coding into the HEAD of your HTML document -->
<!-- STEP ONE: Paste this code into the HEAD of your HTML document -->
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2"> <!-- Begin if (navigator.appName == 'Netscape') var language = navigator.language; else var language = navigator.browserLanguage;
/*------------------------------------------------------------- Netscape instructions: In Netscape, find the language you want to redirect by going to
Edit Menu --> Preferences...
Then click the '+' box next to 'Navigator' and click 'Languages' Click 'Add' then find the languages you want and add them below.
Okay - my error: it should be dirigeste_000001.htm not dirigeste-000001.htm.
Still I got a problem: how to reference to the first page, i.e., page 0. I tried dirigeste_000000.htm and several variations but allways got page does not exit. Ideas

Could you help me with a little test:
Please go to www.sucesso.net and check if the page appears in english ( it should, for all of you who are not using a browser with the portuguese language).
Please send me a message with the language of your browser and stating if your read the page in english or not.
Thanks

page 0 is usually named "index.htm" (see Hypertext >Current hypertext options, second tab).
For the other stuff I see you already learned that you can just replace (say) francais.html with one of the name of your web pages - you see the names on the browser title bar when browsing... (I write this for the other people that might read this topic)

Sorry folks, I decided to temporarily remove the link to the english site (which is only a partial version, anyway).
I´ll bring it back in a few weeks.
But be assured the script I posted works!

By the way, if you want to see a (non-automatic) link to change language, go to
a (very) small site of an accounting firm in Portugal.

Another frequent questions about language:
> comment: I need to write texts in Czech language. There are letters like á, ?, ø etc. When I use EasyWebEditor, these letters are saved as á and simmilar. These entites work in some browsers, but there are letters I can not write - it uses it's western iso-8859-1 variant (unreadable in Czech).
Quickly: *Before* starting any document, you should use "Hypertext >Current hypertext properties" then you should fill the box "Charset". The charset for Czech is: windows-1250
So just write: windows-1250 into the proper box, then all what you'll write after this will be ok
If you don't know the proper charset for your language just email support@visualvision.com

I need the IPA symbols of the International Phonetic Alphabet. I just learned of the character set possibility. Is there a character set for IPA. I am using GIGs now but the don't line up well, some are aliased. A characer set would be great. Does it exist?
thanks,

I think you must use GIF images if you want to be sure everybody actually see what you intend. You may use a graphic software in order to adjust the GIFs all to the same height and make them align. There are graphic editors with nice features for this...

For Russian, see the instructions above for Czech, then the proper Charset string is instead: windows-1251

If you use a particular font, now it is possible to make it automatically downloadable if the browser is IE. This has been added to the faq page www.easywebeditor.com/faq/
I copy here: >>> There is also a non standard way to force the end user PC to automatically download the font. You should use ?Insert >HTML >Within text? and write: <STYLE> @font-face { font-family:FontName; src:url(http://www.yoursite.com/fontname.eot); } </STYLE> As you can see you should convert the font you used from the usual TTF (True type font) for Windows to the Eot format, and you should transfer the file somewhere on the server (maybe using the ?generic FTP?). To converto to EOT you need the WEFT software: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/web/embedding/weft3/default.htm
