Hai all,

I am working on the multilingual application, in asp.net. In
that we are displaying contents in some other language (user selected
language). In that page, we are having some textbox for user input. Is
there any way to restrict the user to input only english characters on
the given textbox.

if any one knows the solution pl. share with me.

Regards,
Raj.
 
You could use client side JavaScript to filter pressed keys though I'm not
sure what you mean by English character ?

I woudl likely left this unchanged and would make crystal clear which is the
current language (my guess would be that you would like that users
understands that they have to enter data in the language the UI currently
uses ?). I would do this by education rather than enforcing this by a rule
(IMO the added value/work involved balance is too low especially if you want
to do this for several languages plus a user could enter a phrase in a
foreign language that uses "english" characters but that is still not an
english phrase).

You could also use the apporiate data type in the DB to be bale to handle
unicode characters (could be needed depending on the language scope you are
handling).

If this is not that you have in mind, please elaborate a bit on the problem
you are trying to solve...

Hai Patrice,

Thanks for your immed. reply.

For an example,

Our web page contains some chinese contents and some textbox
for user input. Now the user installed and selected the chinese
keyboard, in the language bar in his system. Now typing some
characters in that text box, then it will display as in chinese
character.

In that place, we want to restrict the input only as "English
Keyboard" not in chinese keyboard.

Is it possible to do in multilingual application.?

I think, you will understand what i am asking?

Pl. give some idea regarding this!

Regards,
Raj.
