rendering Cyrillic in Seaside?

Hi All.

I am writing a web application where I will need to render Cyrillic:

[[ru:Планктон]]

It does not render correctly in a Workspace. it renders as [[ru:????????]],

But Tobias was kind enough to show that the ByteString does in fact contain the correct Cyrillic codes.

I have done a quick test to see if it would render via Seaside on an html page by some magic.

It does not .

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

tty

Re: rendering Cyrillic in Seaside?

In your page what did you try?

html html: 'Планктон'

should work.

It shows up as ????? in Pharo because the font you're using doesnt have the
glyphs. There might be a font on your system that does. You can change the
font in the settings

Re: rendering Cyrillic in Seaside?

use #text: instead of #html:, it’ll do correct escaping. #html: is used only when you want to write plain HTML to the canvas, which is something you typically don’t do, because that’s what the canvas is there for in the first place.

+1.
In the end it will end up calling #encodeOn: on the String, using the
WADocument encoder for it.

Re: rendering Cyrillic in Seaside?

Hi All,

The Seaside is secondary, as the problem is with the fonts in my Squeak 5.2 linux64 image.

When I navigate...

Extras -> Language -> Russian

cyrillic displays as ?????? i.e. is not rendered correctly.

When I go searching ...

Apps ->Font Importer -> Nothing with UTF8 among the selections.

Since

ru:Планктон

Cannot be rendered as is in the Squeak workspace, but instead shows up as

ru:????????

That is what Seaside renders.

The problem, therefore is getting a UTF8 (?) font into my image. Unfortunately, I do not see any available.

cheers,
