Localisation

menachem sk 5 years ago updated by Michael J. Radwin 5 years ago 1

Hi, Thanks for the great service! We are developing a free mobile app meant to give the uninitiated Jews of Hungary and Slovakia access to Jewish resources, a Hebrew calendar being one of them. We wish to implement certain localisation features. Is this possibility available? Thanks in advance!

Bad Khaf looks like a Beth or Nun -- please change Hebrew font!

Immortal Dandruff 5 years ago updated by Michael J. Radwin 5 years ago 1

What font is that?<br>

The Khaf in that font looks too much like a Beth or Nun.  Therefore Khaf must have a rounded bottom corner.

Anyhow please tell me what font it is so I may avoid it in personal use!!

I'd like to use the Hebcal REST API to query for a specific day, not for an entire month.  Is that possible?  

Answer

not yet. Our current API only supports query by full year or year + month
