i18n in action

No, not a Manning book, but an example of the new Pebble i18n features in action. I've set up a multi-blog Pebble instance with a blog for each of the supported locales. You have to give credit to the ability that Java has to generate localized dates, times, numbers and calendar symbols. That, and the effort that people put in to translate the resource bundles. It's all pretty cool. :-)

You can find the test blog here and I'll leave it running until 1.8 is released. Take a look and see what you think.

I am sorry to say that the search function does not work correctly at

http://www.simongbrown.com/testblog/zhCN/

The query words become mess '????' after press the 'search' button and there are no search results. I noticed the translation of 'Sorry, no results.' has a spell mistake in chinese charactor in the result page.

Do i make myself clear?

I've just changed the form method from GET to POST - can you try a search again now? GETs don't work on my server because I've not setup Tomcat to handle UTF-8 URLs properly.

Hi Simon, Thanks for your hardwork. But the search function still does not work correctly when I search in Chinese. They still '????'.

On the testblog? If I copy some Chinese text and paste it into the search box, the search works for me. I'm using Safari on Mac OS X.

Yes, on the testblog. I'm using Maxthon(IE core) on WinXP SP2. I don't know whether other Chinese readers have this problem.
