 One option is to use IME editor (http://geekswithblogs.net/vivek/archive/2007/02/01/105121.aspx) client side for typing in Hindi and english. But for a more advanced orkut like functionality you will need to write AJAX based code which will convert english letters to Hindi Unicode at runtime.

the functions used it this API will give you an HTML text box where you can type in Hindi, You can access this HTML text box as I do like

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

if(! Page.IsPostBack)

{

StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();

str.Append("<script type='text/javascript'>");

str.Append("function getValue(){");

str.Append("var y = document.getElementById('TextBox1').value;");

str.Append("document.getElementById('HiddenField1').value = y;}");

str.Append("</script>");

if (!Page.ClientScript.IsClientScriptBlockRegistered("GETVALUE"))

{

Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(typeof(Page),"GETVALUE",str.ToString());

}

// Onclick event on Button Event

Button1.Attributes.Add("onClick", "getValue()");

}

}

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

if (!HiddenField1.Value.ToString().Equals(String.Empty))

{

DBAccess db = new DBAccess();

db.CommandText = "Insert into Hindi Values (N'" + HiddenField1.Value +"')";

db.CommandType = CommandType.Text;

db.ExecuteNonQuery();

}

}

 

Hope this helps
