Hi,
I am working on a multilingual site, which requires us to display various languages, stored as Unicode in SQL Server 2000. We need to retrieve those stored languages an display it in browser document. I am using HTML document charset as UTF-8 for this functionality. IE 6.0 is displaying most of the languages(french etc) correctly but it displays only boxes for HINDI, KOREAN, JAPANES, Arabic languages. IE 6.0/5.5 is displaying these characters correctly on my friends machine browser but is not displaying in my browser document. I am using WIN 2000 and IE 6.0. For example, Google Hindi language site is not properly displayed in my browser but it is showing proper characters in my frineds browser though we are using same IE 6.0. Can anybody help me to guide for this browser setting related problem. "To display unicode characters we need not to have related language fonts in our machine." Help required!!!
