Is it possible to present other scripts in an experiment? I have in the past worked with PsychoPy and Pavlovia, but there were issues with using Arabic. Specifically, the line wrap/size adjustment to different screens didn't work. Does jsPsych support scripts like Chinese, Japanese, Arabic? And if yes, how would that be done? |

Hi @lauderui, This should be possible. I know that there is a sizable contingent of Japanese researchers using jsPsych. I believe the key is to use the appropriate <meta http-equiv='content-Type' content='text/html; charset=UTF-8'/>I don't have firsthand experience with this, so please let me know if you run into any issues with a different script and we'll figure out what's necessary. This would be a great addition to our documentation. |

@lauderui my recollection is that when we've had to do this, all we needed to was to make sure the charset was UTF-8, as described by @jodeleeuw. If you try that and it doesn't work, please let us know! |

Hi @lauderui,
This should be possible. I know that there is a sizable contingent of Japanese researchers using jsPsych. I believe the key is to use the appropriate
<meta>tags in the<head>section of the HTML file to let the browser know how the text is encoded. For example, if you using Arabic you may need to use a<meta>tag that specifies the document character set isUTF-8encoded:I don't have firsthand experience with this, so please let me know if you run into any issues with a different script and we'll figure out what's necessary. This would be a great addition to our documentation.
