New Members Kanarietjes Posted April 5, 2011 at 04:07 PM New Members Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 at 04:07 PM Hi, I was hoping someone could help me translate a small text. I have tried alot of translators, but i couldn't figure it out. So i eventually ended up here Here is the text: 䴀攀猀猀愀最攀 昀爀漀洀 ㌀㘀㔀㔀㤀㤀㠀㔀㘀㤀㨀 栀攀攀℀ 樀愀 最愀愀琀 最漀攀搀 栀漀漀爀℀ 洀攀琀 樀漀甀 漀漀欀㼀 瀀眀眀 最愀愀琀 爀攀搀攀氀椀樀欀 琀漀琀 渀甀 琀漀攀㬀⤀ 砀砀 I'm not even entirely sure its chinese, but even though, hope someone can help.

jbradfor Posted April 7, 2011 at 07:57 PM Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 at 07:57 PM Is there some context? Where did you get it? While I freely admit my Chinese isn't the best (or isn't even that good....), that looks like gibberish to me. Anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackmeow Posted April 7, 2011 at 08:08 PM Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 at 08:08 PM yes those are gibberish words, somehow the code are not fit for this site, that's as much as i know, i am not an IT guy, but at least i am a chinese.

Glenn Posted April 7, 2011 at 11:05 PM Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 at 11:05 PM That looks like the problem I have with some banners when I used Chrome on my laptop (PC) and Firefox on my desktop (Mac). It also happens with entire webpages sometimes. For instance, I can't view the Taiwanese MOE's character variant dictionary because the whole page is full of what the OP is asking to have translated.

creamyhorror Posted April 9, 2011 at 05:05 AM Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 at 05:05 AM I'm not even entirely sure its chinese, but even though, hope someone can help. As others have said, it's not Chinese. It's mojibake, or nonsense characters that appear when software "fails to render text correctly according to its associated character encoding." (This is immediately obvious because of the sort of obscure characters and symbols appearing.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbradfor Posted April 15, 2011 at 08:22 PM Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 at 08:22 PM For instance, I can't view the Taiwanese MOE's character variant dictionary because the whole page is full of what the OP is asking to have translated. Change your encoding to Big5 / Chinese Traditional. If you're using Firefox, it's view -> character encoding -> Big5. [Actually, even with that change, the variant dictionary looks a bit like the OP's text: full of characters I don't recognize ;)] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted April 15, 2011 at 08:58 PM Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 at 08:58 PM It's not the encoding. It's a strange problem that no one ever seems to have heard of. I'll see if I can get a screen shot later to show you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted April 15, 2011 at 10:53 PM Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 at 10:53 PM Alright, so I'm having problems taking a screen shot and getting it here, but this is what my bank's website shows as my account information using Chrome: 格浴㹬ഉऊ戼摯㹹㰉潦浲䄠瑣潩㵮⸢⼮杣楢⽮灷束瑡睥祡攮數启䭏久㐽昲扣攲ㅡ扣扦ㄮ㠹㈷㔵㙤挴㜴䴿瑥潨㵤敒慬楴湯桳灩畓浭牡䵹䅆•䕍䡔䑏∽佐呓•摩∽潦浲∱渠浡㵥昢牯ㅭ㸢䤼偎呕吠偙㵅楈摤湥丠䵁㵅䴢瑥潨≤嘠污敵∽敒慬楴湯桳灩畓浭牡䵹䅆•䑉∽楈摤湥∱㰾䍓䥒呐搾捯浵湥潦浲⸱畳浢瑩⤨⼼䍓䥒呐㰾是牯㹭ഉഊऊ⼼潢祤ാ㰊栯浴㹬 That's it. That's the whole webpage. It's a white background and that. There's no Chinese, heck, no non-English anywhere on my bank's website, yet I get that when I log into it on Chrome on my PC laptop and Firefox on my Mac desktop. Somehow it displays fine when I use Safari on the Mac and IE on the PC. I don't get it. No one I've talked to has ever gotten it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imron Posted April 15, 2011 at 11:16 PM Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 at 11:16 PM It's a font substitution problem on the Mac. I had the same problem ages ago, but I forget the specifics of how I solved it - possibly by disabling a font or by changing the default font used by Firefox. If you check the default font used by Firefox/Chrome what one is it? Also, then check what the default font is when using Safari and see if they are different.

Glenn Posted April 16, 2011 at 12:47 AM Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 at 12:47 AM Thanks for the advice. That was new to me. I tried it on the PC. My fonts in Chrome were MS Mincho and MS MinchoP, and MS Gothic and MS GothicP in IE, so I changed them in Chrome, but to no avail. I don't see why it would completely erase the entire page layout and replace it with was I pasted above, though. That just doesn't make any sense to me, and my bank account page isn't the only one that does it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imron Posted April 16, 2011 at 03:48 AM Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 at 03:48 AM Yeah, I can't remember the specifics of the problem, and it suprised me too, because fonts shouldn't cause that issue. However I remember the fix was font related. What font are you using in Firefox on the Mac? Out of curiosity, what site is causing the problem? Do you get it only when you log in, or does it always happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted April 16, 2011 at 04:06 AM Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 at 04:06 AM I'm not sure what I'm using on the Mac. I haven't gotten on it in a while. I just remember the issue. Well, my bank's site only causes the issue when I log in. The MOE's variant character dictionary also causes the issue, although I can use the regular dictionary just fine. Then there are banner ads here and there where it happens, although the rest of the page will be fine. So sometimes it's localized to a small section (or lots of them) of a page, and sometimes the whole page will be affected. I got it a lot at Merriam-Webster's site too, now that I think about it.

imron Posted April 16, 2011 at 04:12 AM Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 at 04:12 AM Just had a look at the MOE's variant character dictionary now. I think this might be a separate problem. The MOE just hasn't set their encoding correctly. If you manually set it in the browser (View->Encoding->BIG5) then it displays the Chinese just fine (at least on my machine here). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted April 16, 2011 at 04:26 AM Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 at 04:26 AM Wow, that's amazing. It did work. So maybe it is an encoding issue after all. I'm going to check my bank's website with Western European (or whatever it is). Right now the default is Unicode 16FE or something like that. Oh my god. It worked. Western ISO 8859-1 did the trick. Well, how about that. I wonder if setting it to auto-detect will prevent this from happening in the future. I'll give that a shot. Now I feel like an idiot. So all this time it actually was an encoding error. Sorry, jbradfor. You were right. And thanks, imron! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
