Hi All,     Can anybody tell me how can i type regional languages like Hindi, Tamil, etc in a text area using virtual keyboard or something. Otherwise like Orkut, if I written something in English, it should automatically convert into selected language. Any plugin or gem is there to do this.

Thanks in Advance, Avantec

That should be pretty easy to set up with JavaScript.

I assume Orkut is using the Google Translate API to do this. Perhaps they have a public API call that you can use?

Hi Marnen, Thanks for your information.   I never used any API or any thing. Can u tell me how can I use that in my project.

No, because I haven't used that API either. Do your own research.

  Using javascript how it is possible. I need to use all main languages like hindi, tamil, telugu, malayalam etc.

Just use JS to put the appropriate characters into the text field. I'm sure you know how to do that. :slight_smile:

Thanks & regards, Avantec
