Mandarin Romanization Chart

Recently, we posted a Mandarin romanization chart on our website. The
page is in Unicode UTF-8, and provides all the accents used in
Mandarin pinyin. So if you're interested in posting on the web in
accented pinyin and need a chart to look up, then make a link and
copy the text directly from the page. There are 1259 syllables
entered into the chart (probably doesn't include rare syllables)

In the chart we also include the newest romanization systems
currently used in Taiwan, plus a couple traditional romanization
systems. If you have any comments or questions or about how it could
be improved, please write to me.

Here is the Mandarin pinyin URL:

Would anybody be interested in seeing something similar for other
Chinese languages?

Oh well, maybe Kobo will have to teach me how to do that. You guys will have to paste the link in your browser.

It's very nice, James. How about the Yale system and the simplified
Gwoyeu Romatzyh (such as used in Lin Yutang's dictionary)?

I don't have access to those romanizations. Send me the basic format and I can fill out the chart. I don't know anybody interested in those romanizations, and personally I'm not, but I suppose it would make teh chart more valuable by adding them in, no?
