Please keep trying. But also note there are three FOSS Unicode 5.1 fonts (parabaik, myanmar3, padauk) available since 2008 April. Also check out our Keymagic http://code.google.com/p/keymagic/, Buglish http://code.google.com/p/burglish/ and WaitZar http://code.google.com/p/waitzar/project for input method implementation.
Michael, can you share with us what is wrong with parabaik, myanmar3, padauk?
I want to make sure I understand something....
If we set the encoding on the site to utf-8, then anyone can use any myanmar Unicode 5.1 - compliant font to look at it. This is in the situation in English, right? Wikipedia sends me bytes in utf-8, and then my browser can render it with any normal font... ariel, times roman, comic, whatever I please.
So, what difference is there in this case? If there are Unicode 5.1 fonts, perhaps incomplete, perhaps complete, then fine. People can use those. What would the problem be with this? Would it render the site unusable for people who are using only Zawgyi?
