Help with Blogger
self

Posted on 11/29/2008 10:44:13 AM PST by gondramB

I'm trying to make a blogger post with the title "Islamist Videos" every time I enter the titme Google changes it to इस्लामिस्ट

Does anybody understand this? I can't tell if Blogger (which is owned by Google)is trying to help me, trying to censor me or just screwed up.

Thanks all!


TOPICS: Computers/Internet
KEYWORDS: blogger; help; titme

It might be translating it to islam — the tongue of terrorists worldwide. Google is right at home with them.

Have you tried disabling the transliteration setting? It’s on the “settings” page, towards the bottom.

I’m trying not to be conspiracy minded but that sure did occur to me.

I can’t tell if that is arabic or nonsense.

It’s nonsense on your computer unless you have the arabic font downloaded on your computer. Otherwise it looks like gobbly gook to you.

That’s like the Chinese or Japanese characters have to be downloaded or it gives those exact same characters.

Thank you so much. I didn't know about that setting and darned if it wasn't set to Hindi.

There probably is, but I don’t know of any off hand.

I have a blogger page, too, so I thought disabling that feature may correct the problem.
