To configure the objects toolbox for i-mode HTML
i-mode HTML is a subset of standard HTML, so not all elements and attributes are supported. You can configure the
objects toolbox to display only supported elements.
❖ From the objects toolbox menu , choose Configure, and then choose an i-mode HTML version that’s
compatible with targeted mobile browsers.
Note: Avoid using Layer objects in your i-mode pages. Layers include invalid i-mode tags.

To enable Japanese i-mode authoring
Japanese i-mode pages require Shift JIS and Unicode UTF-8 character encoding. In addition, to use emoji characters
in your pages, you must enable the i-mode Emoji module.
Note: UTF encoding is enabled by default. Use the following procedures to enable Shift JIS encoding as well.
1 Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or GoLive > Preferences (Mac OS).
2 Select Encodings from the list on the left.
3 On the right, expand Japanese Windows and select the “shift_jis” charset.
4 Select Modules from the list on the left.
5 On the right, expand the Extend Scripts folder, select i-mode Emoji.
6 Click OK, and then restart GoLive.
Adding emoji characters to an i-mode page
Emoji characters are picture symbols in the i-mode font set. The glyph, or visual representation of the character, is a
picture instead of a letter. Because an emoji is a character, it only takes up two bytes of memory—much less than a
small GIF image. There are 176 basic emoji characters and 76 extended characters, so you can communicate infor-
mation very efficiently. In i-mode HTML, emoji are represented by name and category group, by default. You can
select one of three methods to insert your emoji entities: Shift JIS Decimal Code, Shift JIS Binary, and Unicode
Hexadecimal Code. (Page character encoding must be set to Unicode UTF-8.)
An emoji entity is comprised of an ampersand, a pound sign followed by 5 digits, and an ending semicolon. For
example, the code  represents the character “fine” (as in “fine weather”), which looks like a shining sun. To
add emoji to Roman language pages, you can simply use ampersand code, without enabling Shift_JIS page encoding.
