Danny's Weblog

This section is for articles which relate mainly to the Cambodian language, often referred to as Khmer. As with the rest of my site, the articles are presented in *reverse* chronological order. Also, they tend to represent things which I have discovered or speculated about which *supplement* the standard materials: this is not intended to present a free teach-yourself-Khmer course.

In particular, note that I originally focused on using the "Limon-type" fonts for Cambodian, as they were far more commonly used than Unicode. Although I believe Limon is still much more common, support for Unicode is so much better these days that more recent posts focus on Unicode. To get a balanced picture, you should read the entire folder.

Sample webpage using Cambodian font

I haven't figured out how to integrate Cambodian text with my Blosxom content management software, but here is a plain HTML page which displays some English and Cambodian text.

It uses the same technique to set up the fonts, via a .css page which tells the browsr it can pull in the fonts it needs from www.cambodia.gov.kh, that the www.cambodia.gov.kh site uses, so it should work. But if it doesn't work, and you think you have enabled IE to download fonts automatically, let me know. (It's hard for me to test that because all the machines I have access to already have the Limon fonts installed.)
