When I recieved email through my agencies websight I recieved the mail in Cryilic. My RW prefers to send mail directly to my email address but it does not come in Cryilic instead I get stuff like this Ðóññêèé ÿçûê ñ÷èòàåòñÿ òðóäíûì. I can still translate this through a free translator websight that I use but I would prefer to see the cryilic language. Is there an easy way to type in cryilic?

bullsmurf, There are several codes for Russian (Unicode, KOI8, etc.) Perhaps the email/ISP service that you use is configurable, perhap not. I used to use MSN ISP and had no problems with cyrillic being properly decoded. Now I have Yahoo e-mail and the new beta-rev. can't decode cyrillic properly. When I go back to the original rev. I have less problems. So I believe that you can manually select a Russian code or there is an auto select that isn't working well. This is my guess. Try the below link. They explain how to fix many of the common coding problems for cyrillic in e-mails and browsers. http://www.gwu.edu/~slavic/gw-cyrillic/cyrilize.htm#browsers Ronin Last edited on Friday January 12th, 2007 08:51 am by ronin1 |

For Firefox go to the View menu then Character Encoding. Cryillic(windows -1251) did the trick for me. If that is not on the list then go to more encodings, East European and Cryillic(windows -1251) should be listed there. I have to select the Cryillic character Encoding each time I pull up one of her emails but that works good enough for me.

If you are using AOL it is not possible to see Cyrillic they told us. Is there an easy way to type in cryilic? The best way to type in Cyrillic is to use an English/Russian keyboard you can buy from ebay very cheaply, and add Russian as a language on your computer by going to your language settings via control panel. If you want to learn the basics of Cyrillic, I have that on my site: http://www.ladagirl.com/alphabet.html

Another good way to add Russian Cyrillic characters to the keyboard is to buy stick-ons. I have been using them for quite a while. Every time I went to Russia I took a few laptops. I purchased them used on eBay and added Russian Cyrillic characters buy putting on the stick-ons. I didn't think they would last long but was surprised that they worked perfectly. The best ones are letters printed on a clear tape like material. Do not get the individual letters. They do come off, I tried them one time on a laptop style keyboard that I use on my main computer because space is limited. I could not find this type keyboard with Cyrillic characters. With use the letter loosen and eventually fall off. I tried using clear fingernail polish, it helps but a few did come off. The clear full stick-ons are still on! I used alcohol to clean the keys before putting them on and trimmed the clear portion to fit the key perfectly. Both are available on eBay and come in various colors. Some have additional Cyrillic characters not used in Russian, to avoid clutter I trimmed them off.
