Anyone for Chinese?

[PMWD]

A client has had interest from a Chinese company wanting to replicate their site for the Chinese market. I can barely manage English so the interested party will be providing the translations, but what about the encoding on the site?

Just wondering if anyone had had any experience with providing pages for the Chinese market?

Thanks

What do you mean "encoding"? The only chinese translation I've had to deal with involved just pasting in chinese text, the doctype and character encoding (UTF-8) is the same as every other site I do irrespective of the language it uses.

or am I missing something?

make sure the document type and any database table fields use UTF8, then just replace the text ^_^
