Foreign Text in Dreamweaver MX

[JackFlashRaD]

Hey guys,

I need to type up some info. on a webpage with Korean Text. I tried going to the "page properties" and changing the language from "Western" to "Korean" but to my avail, nothing happened when I typed on the workspace and debugged the page in Iexplorer. My operating systems isWindows XP. Thanks guys, I appreciate it.

This is just a shot in the dark but do you have a Korean charactor font installed?

P.S. I deleted your other duplicate post.

I love children but I don't think I could eat a whole one.

You have to set the correct charset in the head of your page. That way the browser knows to use the proper characters.

For Korean it could be one of the following. Just try them out and see which one works best.

<meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=euc-kr'>

<meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=iso-2022-kr'>

thanks for the advice guys, but, when I'm typing the text in dreamweaver and debugging it in Iexplorer, only the default 'western' font shows?

You need to go split screen in DW and insert one of the meta tags I posted above into the head section.
