Dear Sir,\ \ Feel good to have your program. Before edite it, I want to know if I add two more Foreign languages options on the system, every time I need to select that Language first than type that Language and replace the default English. The original English version/option will not be erased and still remain the same, is that right? \ \ How to set the code for detecting client OS language browser and open his language automatically when he browsing my site?\ \ Thanks!

You can create languages as you like with no effect on existing languages if I understand you. The user needs to select the language only the first visit then after this it is saved by cookie.

As for code for auto detetcing, search the JS code sites for ready code, of course yu will need some custom JS code done.

If you did not translate the second language then the text will be the same whatever language you select.

Please post the url to what you said to understand what you are saying.

thanks

Do not use none english for the language name you created. Delete the one you created and create it with English name, the server seems to unable to parse these unicode chars.

You need to edit the categories for the second languages and set these categories to Active, empty categories are NOT active.

Yes, I translate all from Admin. However, it seem you are misunderstanding my questions. I try again:\ \ 1. I translated all countries names with second language, but they wouldn't show up on the scroll box under "Select your region" section. Same on Ads Type.\ \ 2. For "Site Statistic" section \ I translated the counter names with second language, such as XX Total Listed, XX Total Categories, XX Total Ads, XX Current Ads, XX Seconds consumed. But they show with mixup html codes and unreadable. \ \ 3. One more question found:\ When I use second language encoding browser, mixup html codes appear on all category pages read:\ Sort by: Photo | Title | Type | Location | Expires?A HREF="http://xxx.com/cgi-bin/ads/classified.cgi?action=Browse&Search=Category&Status=1&Sorted=1&Sort=E&Dir=0&Page=1&Cat_ID=1&CatA_ID=0&CatB_ID=0&Lang=English">\ \ They are on page url:\ http://xxx.com/cgi-bin/ads/classified.cgi?action=Browse&Search=Category&Cat_ID=1&CatA_ID=0&CatB_ID=0&Lang=English\ \ They are same when I select second language from the site.\ \ Please help.

The regions you translate in the language manager is used for user registration only, the ads region categories is used for what I said select your region.

To display your chinese or other languages you either need to do 2 things

You need to change the charset in the header to your chinse charset, or you may use a UTF-8 encoding that's convert each byte to the format &xxxx;. Normally if you use frontpage it wil create new pages with your PC default code page and also you can use itto convert the text to a unicode.

Got it. Thank you for your patient.\ \ One more thing I concern that, I created The contries name from "Categories AdsLocation Manager", I selected only some of contries in Chinese, they are listing not in order, they are less than English version and also less than the other in Language.pm. Is it will cause any searching problem on "Select your region"? Or the system is smart enough to catch exactly that contry you are search for? \ \ Thanks.

First you sort the display by the "Sort" value. Second the program uses unique numeric ID's for everything and never depend on text values for all categories types etc.

I will close this topic as it is driving other topics.

Thanks
