Hi,
can we do website in Hindi for a particuler client?

are we able to handle Hindi Fonts?

"A Hindi version of the web site in UT8(?). '

Is there a specific formatting called UTF or UT8?

Please Help me...

Thanks,
Krishna Murthy

Yeah, you can use UTF-8 to display Hindi (like this http://www.bbc.co.uk/hindi/).

Should be fairly simple to do - assuming you have an editor supporting the UTF-8 charset and Hindi character support. Just be certain you correctly encode the HTML files as UTF-8, set a valid UTF-8 charset in the HTML header section, and if using PHP use htmlentities('string', ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'); on all user sourced input to escape any potential XSS strings.
