Where to translate PPC?

[Kafi]

1. I can not use PPC until I will translate it. How to do it? Should I translate english.php file and other in Language section?
2. In category description (and probable wherever) it is not supporting my language coding. I use easter-european language. How to change this? Am not really familiar with language codes etc. Please advise. Thank you.

FYI Vbulletin works flawless with my language symbols. I have translated it totally.

Yes you would translate the english.php file etc to your language

You would need to edit pp-inc.php and specify the correct encoding type in the $contentmeta string

Ok I have changed it to this:

$contentmeta = "<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=win-1250\" />";

and still having problem with two specific letters (showing question mark insted of that letters) and also when I write descrtiption for category, it translate the letters (that I see in admin fields) to code (I mean that I do not see my letter but the code instead).

Is not there also some encoding involved with php scripts and/or database?

back again, I have changed meta also in adm-inc.php and adm-index.php
So far it works BUT...

Once I do edit category it brings codes again instead of letters and then if I save it - it is saved asi it shows and then also interpreted by browser in wrong "signs".

There are even two steps. First time I edit it shows different letters and save them. Second time I edit category, it shows codes...

This must be some translation during reading from database.... any idea how to get rid of it?

back again...

although category and category description is showing properly in my language (until I do not edit them - see above post), translation of english.php file is not interpreting my language.
Is there any sort of encoding embeded (kind of) in php file? I have correct meta for charset in html code showing...

I cant say what your issue is other than to use the right characterset for the proper language

$contentmeta = "<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=iso-8859-2\" />";
