Aleph–Bet Chart
August 18, 2002
With the help of Andy, I’m designing a script that will convert left–to–right typed English letters into HTML image source declarations (<IMG SRC=“”...>).
For example, the script will recognize the typed letter “A” and convert it to:
<img src=“/images/hebrew/aleph.gif” width=“10” height=“16” alt=“aleph”>
The script will also:
- handle the right–to–left nature of Hebrew
- wrap a <span class=“foreign” title=“# ”> around each word (where “#” equals the gematria value, also allowing for manual translations to easily be inserted)
- a “de-Hebrize” function, to reverse the process if spelling errors are noticed, et al.
