Hello,




I think you did not understand the way phpGW handles 
language.




The translations are in the phpgw_*.lang files in each setup 
subdirectory of each module.




When you install phpGW, in setup you can handle the 
languages. You must install your language by selecting it 
and clicking on "install all phrases" (or something like 
that).




When you do that, phpGW reads all the phpgw_xx.lang files 
mentioned above (xx = your language code) and put all the 
entries in the database.




Once this is done, in the account manager, you can say in 
which language each account must work. Once this is setup, 
each page must have its phrase entries translated (if the 
entry exists in the phpgw_xx.lang file AND the code is using 
the lang() function to have the message translated).




Is this what you want ?




If the answer is yes, first you must ask for latvian to be 
activated in phpGW (you can do it here or by mail) or it 
will not appear in the languages list in setup and so.




Then you can translate the phpgw_en.lang files into 
phpgw_xx.lang files for each module you want to use (xx=lt 
for latvian ?), install these phrases into your database in 
the setup of phpGW, and optionnaly send the phpgw_xx.lang 
files to the patch manager of savannah so I can include them 
for future releases of phpGW.




Tell us if this solves your problem so we can close this 
support request.




Bye !

Hello.

I have little problem after installation. Could someone
help me to solve it?

Here it is:
I need the ability to use non "translated" (latvian)
language inside the phpGW, that means that
applications are not localized, but i need to see any
information which i had insert 
in DB in latvian, not like &XXX codes... I setup mysqld
to run with cp1257,
which is windows charset for latvian, after that some
info (account info) is 
displayed correctly, some (todo tasks) not... I noticed
that all html
generated by php scripts have string:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1">
which i expect use default setting for charset in all
applications, but i
can't find out where this "default option resides", to
change it... is it 
possible to chnage default charset to all applications
at once or not, without localization of each of them ?
Or could You advice another trick to solve that problem?

Thx
