<div><p>The iSeries™ Access
portlets display information from a variety of sources. Some of these sources
are able to provide information in more than one language, or format information
in a language-specific manner. Such language-specific information includes
forms, error messages, help, formatted dates and times, and sorted lists.</p>
<p>The sources of information displayed by portlets include:</p>
<ul><li>i5/OS™</li>
<li>JDBC driver</li>
<li>portal server</li>
<li>iSeries Access
portlets</li>
</ul>
<p>The iSeries Access
portlets use the language selected for the user by the portal server to influence
the language and format of information from the other sources. However, there
is no guarantee that the information from a specific source will be in the
selected language, or that all the information will be in the same language.</p>
<p>Messages and help which originate from i5/OS may not be in the selected language,
depending on which language versions are installed for i5/OS. If the selected language is not
installed, then i5/OS messages
displayed by the iSeries Access
portlets will be in the primary language of i5/OS.</p>
<p>For information on the language support in WebSphere<sup>®</sup> Portal, refer to <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Administering your portal</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Language support</span></span> in the WebSphere Portal information center.</p>
<p>The iSeries Access
portlets support languages that WebSphere Portal does not support
by default. For information about configuring WebSphere Portal to support additional
languages, see <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Administering your portal</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Language support</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Supporting a new language</span></span> in the <a href="http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pvc/wp/502/smbi/en/InfoCenter/index.html" target="_blank"> WebSphere Portal Information Center</a>.</p>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">WebSphere Portal
language selection</h4><p>For information on how WebSphere Portal selects the language
for displaying portal content and instructions for affecting the language
selection process for a user, see <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Administering your
portal</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Language support</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Selecting
and changing the language</span></span> in the <a href="http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pvc/wp/502/smbi/en/InfoCenter/index.html" target="_blank"> WebSphere Portal Information Center</a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Information in multiple languages (multilingual)</h4><p>Because
the information displayed by the iSeries Access portlets comes from a
variety of sources, there is the possibility that the information is in more
than one language. When multiple languages are displayed in a browser simultaneously,
a multilingual character set, such as UTF-8, may be required to display all
the characters correctly. For information on the character set used by WebSphere Portal
to display portal content and for instructions on changing the character set,
see <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Administering your portal</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Language
support</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Changing the character set for a language</span></span> in the <a href="http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pvc/wp/502/smbi/en/InfoCenter/index.html" target="_blank"> WebSphere Portal Information Center</a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">CCSIDs and i5/OS messages</h4><p>To ensure that information
is displayed properly, make certain that the Coded Character Set ID (CCSID)
setting for the user profile is appropriate for messages originating from i5/OS.</p>
