Internet Explorer 5.x and 6.0
Displaying languages correctly
Internet Explorer has an Auto-Select feature for displaying languages correctly. Some web pages include information about what encoding to use when displaying the page; the Auto-Select feature enables Internet Explorer to determine the appropriate language encoding for a web page even if the page itself doesn't specify which encoding to use. To turn on the Auto-Select feature, follow these steps:
1. From the View menu, select Encoding, and then select Auto-Select.
2. You may be prompted to download a language support component; if so, click Download.
If Auto-Select cannot determine the correct language and you know what the language should be, you can manually select it while viewing a web page, as follows:
1. From the View menu, select Encoding, then More.
2. Select the appropriate language or character set/encoding. If prompted to download language support components, click Download.
Adding a language does not guarantee that your computer has a font that it can use to display web pages in the selected language. You can set Internet Explorer to notify you when fonts are needed:
1. From the Tools menu, select Internet Options... .
2. From the Internet Options window, click the Advanced tab, and then click the checkbox for Enable Install On Demand (in Internet Explorer 6, this option is labeled Enable Install On Demand (Internet Explorer) ).
Setting a preferred language
You can also specify which language you would like Internet Explorer to use when a web page is supplied in more than one language:
1. In Internet Explorer, from the Tools menu, select Internet Options... .
2. On the General tab, click Languages... .
3. In the Language Preference dialog box, click Add... , then select the language that you want and click OK.
Note: Five different encoding methods are used to process Chinese characters. You must choose the appropriate encoding method for your situation. If you are not sure which method to use, you can click all five methods. Internet Explorer automatically chooses the appropriate version for each web site. Three different encoding methods are used to process Japanese characters. All three encoding methods are processed automatically.
4. If you read several languages, you can click Add... again to add other languages. Use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to arrange the languages in order of priority. For web sites that offer multiple languages, the browser will display the content in the language that you've given the highest priority.
5. In the Language Preference dialog box, click OK.
6. In the Internet Options dialog box, click OK.
You will have to close and restart Internet Explorer for the change to take effect.
