Multiple character encodings
MX Kollection 3 supports multiple character encodings.
Your forms and generated pages will render the content correctly.
The e-mail messages sent by your application will render correctly no matter what characters you write in. That means that whether you send your e-mail messages in Chinese characters or write with Russian alphabet your message will get through to your user with perfect clarity.
Internationalization
Set databaseA database refers to data organized and stored on a computer that can be searched and retrieved by a computer program. Most industrial-strength and many smaller database applications can be addressed using SQL (Structured QueryA query is a SQL command that will extract information from the tables of a database. Essentially, a query is a request for information from your database. Language). and screen date formats and have the dates converted behind the scenes - choose the date format that best fits your area of the globe:
Server formats are automatically generated in the forms to format and escape your database information.
Choose one of the language packs for the error messages - the errors will be later displayed in your own language.
It is now easier to translate and customize the language settings, date format and error messages. The resource files that contain these messages are placed on disk in the includes/resources/ folder.
Image libraries
MX Kollection 3 supports many image manipulation libraries in order to help you build web applications that use dynamic images, without having to worry about underlying platform details. Depending on your server modelThe server model is the Dreamweaver term for your combination of the scripting language and/ or database software used for development on your server, for instance PHP_MySQL, ASP.NET, ASP VBScript, ColdFusion, etc. InterAKT extensions generate server side code. Therefore, setting the correct server model in your site definition is important so that extensions generate the proper code for your development framework., the supported image processing libraries are:
You can select a preferred image libraryAn image library is a component of your server model language (PHP, ASP, ColdFusion) which contains functions for manipulating images in a variety of formats. Some MX Kollection 3 server behaviors use these libraries to generate and process dynamic images and thumbnails. Examples include the GD library for PHP or ImageMagick for ColdFusion.
