[mapserver-users] Label encoding

[Murty Maganti]

Hi

Is that list same if map server is compiled with Fribidi or is it
different?

Also, have another issue. I have a map file that loads perfectly fine on
XP and vista. The moment I add encoding attribute, it does not load in
vista (no matter what the coding value). It just hangs in mapObj.draw()
and need to restart IIS. Works fine on XP. Is there any clue where I can
look to resolve the issue. Do I need to install any additional libraries
for Iconv or Fribidi on Vista?

Thanks
Murty

MapServer uses the libiconv library to deal with encodings. There is a 
list of encodings that the lib supports here:

   http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/

... and one can also use the "iconv -l" command on a system with 
libiconv installed to get the complete list of supported encodings on 
that specific system.
