Open Hack Day 2009: London: on Mike McKenna - PHP and Internationalisation

Mike McKenna - PHP and Internationalisation
This talk gives a brief overview of internationalisation issues, and how they can be designed for using PHP. Topics covered are User Experience Design faux pas, dealing with personalisation and design elements, dynamic message handling, and formatting for the unexpected. Yahoo has released two major new modules for PHP to greatly increase the ability to create robust international applications. The first is PHP-intl which provides functionality based on Unicode, the global text encoding standard. PHP-intl provides formatting, collation, date handling, and complex character handling for languages such as Thai and Hindi. The second new module is PHP-rb, which provides powerful resource bundle and message handling, with locale fall-back to enable multilingual and multi-locale applications to serve an appropriate experience no matter where your users live. The resource bundle mechanism is very close to Java properties files in syntax, but allows multiple line entries, and all data in Unicode UTF-8. Download the slides here
