Hi, I'm trying to do transliteration on English words to Telugu. Below
is how my coding looks like. The output that I am expecting is the
English word "Hello, how are you." and the transliterated word of it
in Telugu right below the English word. But what I got from my coding
below is only the English word. Is something wrong with my coding? Can
anyone suggest solutions for this? Please and thank you.

<title>Transliteration</title>

script>
<script type="text/javascript">

google.load("language", "1");

function initialize() {
var content = document.getElementById('content');
// Setting the text in the div.
content.innerHTML = '<div id="text">Hello, how are you.<\/div><div
id="translation"/>';

// Grabbing the text to translate
var text = document.getElementById("text").innerHTML;

google.language.transliterate(text, 'en', 'te', function(result) {
var translated = document.getElementById("translation");
if (result.transliterations) {
translated.innerHTML = result.transliterations;
}
});
}
google.setOnLoadCallback(initialize);

</script>
</head>
<body style="font-family: Arial;border: 0 none;">
<div id="content">Loading...</div>
</body>
</html>

Hello,

Sometimes transliteration does not work for certail languages, e.g. pronouns.. or so..

Did you ttry your code for other words also?

Revert if so, I will look at that. I have a working code for English to Hindi..Change the language code and it should work fine..

Regards,

JD

Hello again,
Thanks for your suggestion. I did try to change the words. I also
changed the language code to Hindi and Arabic. But the output I got is
still the same as previously. Did I use correctly the method of
google.language.transliterate() ? You said that you have a working
coding for English to Hindi. May I have a look at it? I really
appreciate your help. ^.^
