Greek Fonts in Java

Posted: May 24, 2002 1:11 PM

Hello

My problem has to do with greek fonts. I have an applet where a user enters a string. However, i want
that string to be greek (i have a greek web site and i want to perform a search). When i use english words the search works just fine.
How can i fix this problem? I have read about supported encodings but i can't understand how to make a string to accept greek input in my applet.

Thanks in andvance
Mariam

Mariam,
I basically don't know but I would try the following to see a bit what it gives ... I would be in general interesting if you gave more informations on the environment you used.
Anyway,
_ Have you tried to set the Locale to GR, GR.
_ Have you tried to make a Jar with the appropriate Font / ISO-Char definition within ? (This sentence is also rather crytic to me ;-)). I just wander what I could add to an Applet's jar to have it running & I believe teh CHARACTER set definition is one thing that could be missing.
_ Can you have your application working (that part of the application working) ?
_ If not could you have the faulty code posted on this site so we could give it a go ;-) ?
