In general we use the multibyte character encoding UTF-8 as default encoding with the follwing consequences: [wiki:Self:completesearch/Installation Installation Guide]
Line 5: Line 5:
- The $AC->settings->encoding is 'utf-8' unless overriden in autocomplete_config.php
- The text.php is saved as UTF-8
- The css file uses '@charset "utf-8";'
[wiki:Self:completesearch/IndexBuilding Index Building: Tools, Formats, etc.]
Line 9: Line 7:
- $AC->settings->capitals is utf-8 encoded
- In ajax.php we utf-8 encode the query string if $AC->settings->encoding is utf-8 and the charset of content_type is not utf-8 (means the request is sent in a non-utf-8 type)
[wiki:Self:completesearch/DocumentFormats Document Formats: .docs, .words, .vocabulary, etc.]
Line 12: Line 9:
We have to support other encodings like iso-8859-1 because some collections are not utf-8 encoded.
The default encoding can be overriden by $config->encoding in the autocomplete_config.php.
Line 15: Line 10:
To handle non-utf-8 encoding we do the following:
- the page encoding of index.php is determined by $AC->settings->encoding
( <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=<?php echo $AC->settings->encoding; ?>">
)
- Texts from text.php are utf-8 decoded by $AC->get_text()
