bug report on wiki, about Chinese Characters

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Truth <gubotruth(a)gmail.com> Date: Apr 20, 2006 1:12 AM Subject: bug report on wiki, about Chinese Characters To: opensuse-wiki(a)opensuse.org Related pages: http://en.opensuse.org/CN-* Those are pages containing Chinese Characters. It's actually some preliminary work for setting up a Chinese wiki, And unfortunately the bug makes that impossible so far. I'll use the page below to explain what the bug is like. http://en.opensuse.org/CN-Frequently_Asked_Questions It's Chinese translation for the English FAQ page. I finished the translation at 14:26, 12 February 2006, after a couple of times' edit. The page history is here: http://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=CN-Frequently_Asked_Questions&action… I was using the browser Opera, whose default encoding code is UTF-8, editing and posting. It seemed perfect when I just finished. And I did visit the page a week later, it was still fine(both in Opera/firefox). However, someday in March I went back again and found it all messed up. Some characters ( not all) can not ne recognized, and seems replaced by "�?�" or "�?".(in Opera/firefox/IE) According to the page history, nobody has touched it. The same issue happens to all Chinese pages on the wiki, such as. http://en.opensuse.org/CN-Communicate http://en.opensuse.org/CN-SDB:SDB .............. all full of "�?�"s. I'm not quite sure if the problem is related to encoding or fonts. As I saw similar messed-up Chinese pages on the wiki when I first came here, I suppose it an existing bug. Maybe it's related to storing chars? Quite STRANGE. Any insights? I'm willing to do anything like debug if needed. Best wishes.

Server problems?

I'm trying to add a page, but first I felt like playing in the sandbox a little.. But no matter where or when I click on an "edit" link, I get presented by downloading the index.php file... Any ideas on when that may be fixed? -- Anders Norrbring Norrbring Consulting

Since I've done this, a couple of weeks ago, I'm beginning to wonder how long it will take until it will become live. Or, until someone will notice. The wiki pages, do say that one should "advertise" the new translation on this mailing list ... but hey, don't sound like anyones interested?

Okay Pflodo I got your message, but for the life of me don't know how to answer you... so I'll put this onthe maillinglist... At least I know how to handle that... Yes, I agree, that the table was only to keep the text on the right... The first table does everything just as you described.... The second time around it don't! Any Ideas why? It has the same structure (or should I say markup) as the first! Jerry

Help writing help

Hello there, my first post post here... I was sent to this list from the OpenSUSE list... I'm trying to write some documentation about remote access to SUSE. Unfortunately, I'm down with a real bad flu... I've notcied that both jdd and PFLodo have made changes to it. Thx. To my question: I've finished (for now) the intro, Now I need to right diferent "Chapters" on how to setup different pieces of software I've been blabing about... I would like to make the chapters seperate documents, each along the lines "Tell then what your are going to tell, tel them, and then tell what you just told then". my problems are: 1) the documents look like shit. 2) I need to use tables to organize the options. 3) I'll want lots and lots of screen shots for the newbies... And I don't know how to fix any of these... Additionally, I find it hard working on the wiki documantation. Any tips appreceated. Jerry P.S. How do I get something like this into wiki? http://home.intergga.ch/Westrick/Using_SSH_tunnels_from_M$_Windows.pdf

Commit translation (Vietnamese)
by Phan Vinh Thinh 27 May '06

Hi, Here are Vietnamese translations (after the arrows) of some words: Welcome_to_openSUSE.org -> Chào_mừng_đến_với_openSuSE.org Communicate -> Giao thiệp Download -> Tải xuống Report a Bug -> Báo cáo lỗi The attached tarball contains 5 translated pages, and this email also attached (word.txt). P.S. Please don't think that I'm working under user root. These files are on my FAT32 filesystem :). -- С уважением Phan Vĩnh Thịnh <teppi82 tại gmail chấm com> http://teppi82.googlepages.com Jabber: teppi82(a)jabber.ru

stable version translation
by jdd 26 May '06

26 May '06

to help in translating the stable version table, I made this template: http://fr.opensuse.org/Modèle:Version_stable to be used like this http://fr.opensuse.org/Version_Stable Hopefully it will not be broken by next version, but anyway it's easier to edit a template than the page itself. also we should have some way to have these tables sometime in advance for translation purpose, thanks this table is pretty difficult to translate. In fact it's nearly impossible to just edit the translated one when a modif is done on the english one. I tried to make an other way template (like a po file), but this was pretty difficult, and may not work for non european langages. any idea welcome :-) jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos
