localization and ASP

[Justin]

Hi,

I have a simple 'user' table (SQL Server 2000) and an ASP form that
connects to it. I want users of all languages to be able to type in
their registration info, in their own language (chinese, german,
etc..), store it that way, then have another page that displays it.

Is there anything specific I need to do with ASP (classic, not .NET),
to handle this?

Thanks

'users of all languages' ?

You will need a complete knowledge of all those languages of the world and
to be an expert in programming with ample time.

Fine... for simplicity sake let's say "Chinese, German and Thai". So
the question is, will this work "out of the box" on win 2000, sql
server 2000 and asp?

With a knowledge of those languages you could build it in ASP and a
database.

Chinese however is not a language, so for simplicity,
I would prefer Welsh or Sranan Tongo.

Are you a skilled programmer in vbscript or jscript?

Yes, I've been programming for 7 years now. It's been awhile since
I've done asp though, as it's been mostly JSP/PHP in the last few
years.

Then, Justin, you should be able to do it, perhaps with some backup from
this NG. Choose for jscript xor vbscript from the start.

But why not use your expertise and programme in PSP or PHP ?

Because this is for an existing ASP web application for a client of
mine.
