Joyo Kanji Meaning

Over at http://aule-browser.com/kanji/index.html I have added an option to select a view of joyo kanji graphcally.

You don't have to ask yourself which page you preferred if you can recognize the layout of the page or its font or other features such as stroke order animation or stroke order diagram or whether or not the meanings were hidden until selected with the mouse.


There are 3 new views today using alternative sort-order 2 and 3.

joyo romaji aule

At aule-browser I am building an Aule Page for the romaji for joyo kanji at about.com

The kanji following the romaji are links to Jim Rose stroke-order GIF's.

I am in the process of replacing the GIF Kanji on the Aule Page with utf-8 characters.

The aule page is mobile and iTouch friendly.

The following snapshot will give you a good idea of just how clean an Aule page is intended to be (it is JavaScript-free):


You get a glimpse of the gold kanji at the bottom; these are slowly replacing the blue GIF's in the Aule Page version of the cluttered alternative web site's page.

This safe and secure aule page scrolls best in the Opera app on my iTouch (Safari is so often problematic despite being the source of WebKit browsers such as Chrome.)

The snapshot includes one example of two entries for the same Kanji being combined into a one line entry.

When complete, I will make an alternative with a default local font, although I prefer the Hanazono Mincho font.

"AULE" - a safe and secure place to enter; a protective wall for a home

Kanji at my local home Aule Page

I just added two new joyo kanji pages over at aule-browser.com/kanji but my links from my own aule-page are different.

The reason is that I re-write the server pages as local pages. The Curl pages at the server run fine off-line, but I can improve some of the HTML by moving pages to being local.

Here is what my local home page or "Aule Page" looks like these days:


To see the details, here is a JPG and here is a PNG image.

I like being able to type in the text area because on Firefox, the Perapera plugin will translate any Kanji that I paste into it when I am on-line. Some of those compound kanji become part of the default text in that text area. On Firefox 12, the text area can be re-sized!!

To see the textarea resized, check out this JPG or this PNG.  Below is a snap:
