    3 languages in XML to pass to swf

    Hi all,
    I'm working on some kind of presentation of my friend. This presentation must be in 3 languages English, Russian and Georgian. For one of parts of the presentation I've got an XML file which has attributes like
    <file title="Title to diplay in Georgian" titleeng="title in English" titlerus="Title in Russian" poem_file="lirycs/vagoni.txt" pict_file="videos/ba1.jpg" vid_file="videos/ba1.swf"/>

    Georgian are not unicode fonts, russians - non unicode as well - something like Times New Roman Cyr....

    The Question is which encoding of XML file should I use and do I need anything to write in swf to make it understand that encoding?

    Hi mtiebi,

    You need to use [php] and [/php] around XML for it to show up, you can use [as] and [/as] for ActionScript.
    PHP Code:
    <file 
      title
    ="Title to diplay in Georgian"
      
    titleeng="title in English"
      
    titlerus="Title in Russian"
      
    poem_file="lirycs/vagoni.txt"
      
    pict_file="videos/ba1.jpg"
      
    vid_file="videos/ba1.swf"
    /> 
    As for encoding, you should be able to use UTF-8, but do a search here in this forum on "encoding" and you'll see lots of useful articles.

    Hope this helps!
