Nice! Do you have a language pack? In that case send it to me and I'll post it on the download page.

Great, I'll upload it momentarily.

BTW, I removed the other topic you posted in the announcement forum. This one is enough :)

Re: punBB-vi

I have a question. You've set lang_encoding to UTF-8. There are some problems running PunBB with that encoding. Does search work for you?

Unfortunately, no sad
Maybe with new release of MySQL. I use punBB now in SF.net with MySQL 3.x so we loss search feature for UTF-8 charset. But this is not so important for us. PunBB is great even without "search" posibility smile

Re: punBB-vi

Isn't there a proper vietnamese locale?

There are many charsets (and so locale sets) in Vietnamese. But only Unicode (UTF-8) is recommended to use today.

Re: punBB-vi

@ Rickard: Is there problem to upload Vietnamese language package into download page of your site ?

Re: punBB-vi

No, I just wanted to see if there was any way of solving the locale issue. It doesn't feel good supplying people with something that doesn't quite work as it's supposed to.

Re: punBB-vi

I think there is no solution for UTF-8 fulltext search with MySQL 3.x.
Even without this feature, punBB works well for us smile
Anyway, the language package is already available from our forum smile

Yep, we use latin alphabet but with alot of accented characters.

There are many encodings for Vietnamese. But the most used is Unicode UTF-8 which is used actually in our punbb forum smile
For displaying in web browser we use UTF-8 TrueType fonts like Verdana, Arial or Times New Roman.
