<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Dear Friends,</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">We are now experimenting Malayalam
language (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malayalam_language">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malayalam_language</a>)
data entry with Koha for public libraries in our area.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">We configured unicode with MySQL and
Apache ( with Debian Lenny) as per the manual.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">And we installed Malayalam fonts and
enabled Malayalam in Debian Lenny.
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">We encountered an error whie
cataloguing, clicking on Save button on MARC fields after adding book
details in Malayalam language. Following is the error message,</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
