POI Edit multilingual option added

Hi All

I added an option to select a language to our Extra POI Editor and POI Editor. It works with GPX and KML files.

How to use multilingual POI Edit:
1. Go to http://www.gps-data-team.com/convert.php to open an editor
2. Select your character set (options on the left side)
3. Enter/find your POI file and press the "Edit POI's" button.

4. Save your file before you make any charset changes.


I can change my script if you have any suggestion (you are welcome to post your suggestions in reply to this message).

Cheers

Re: Charset options

I just added a new feature to our Online Extra POI Editor ( http://garmin.gps-data-team.com/extra/ )
You can choose to Keep accents ( ü -> ü ) or to Remove accents ( ü -> u ) in the Options Menu (top left bar)
I hope it helps

Thanks, Andrew, I am travelling (without my car) for the next few days, but look forward to trying this out.
