Web site in HINDI

[amanda001]

Hello TO Everyone

A Day I am Searching on web site design looking for how to use a Hindi font.

Is there a way to display different languages/font on a website

I need to make a website in "Hindi"...

Can it be done via CSS ??

Hi, you have to specify your character encoding in the document properties of the page or maybe get the server to output the character encoding in the header information of the actual http data.

This kind of thing is described over at http://www.w3.org It's an advanced subject so I advise studying it at the w3.org site where they have the best advice.

In PHP pages you can add something like this to the beginning of the page code:

Code:

<?php
header("Content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8");
?>

This overrides the server's default settings for the character encoding. Once the http header was received by the browser, it may be stubborn to change the character encoding, that is why this trick is needed. Ideally, your web host is serving pages with a default of the Hindi character encoding, then you should have less problems.

Andy is right, but if your site doesn't use PHP and only serve simply HTML pages you may try this:

Code:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
