Our sites are generally developed for the most commonly used browsers: Internet Explorer and Firefox. They should display properly in other browsers since they follow W3C standards, however you may sometimes have problems with less commonly-supported languages. All character sets are displayed in the browser using a subprogram known as a "rendering engine". Especially in less common or non-European languages, the rendering engine can work differently depending on the browser. The situation with Hindi is as follows (as far as we can work out and at present time of writing!): 1) Windows and Internet Explorer. Since Windows has its own system rendering engine, IE depends on Windows to display character sets. In order to display Hindi properly, you must go to "Regional Settings" in the Windows Control Panel, click on the "Languages" tab, and then make sure that both the complex script and Far Eastern languages files are installed. If you are in India, then this setting will probably be installed already. 2) Firefox has its own rendering engine, and therefore does not depend on the Windows rendering engine to work. Unfortunately, the two are incompatible. Consequently, whereas Firefox displays Hindi correctly when complex script is NOT enabled on the Windows workstation, it will not work when complex script IS enabled! These instructions hold good for Windows systems. We would recommend using the Firefox browser on Linux systems.
