Hi Guy,
The browser in Nokia N900 works well after I installed Thai Font from Maemo.
However, there are some websites that I still can't read it in Thai. (Example: invisionplus forum). It displays like Alien Language. I try to find the encoding... found it.. but there is no Thai.
Anyone can help me please? I need to reply in that board.
Thanks

Try install uKeyboard from Extra-Devel. It will have Thai support for keyboard also as language pack.

I did it sir. That's the situation right now.
Most websites are fine. Only board like invisionplus can't be dispalyed in Thai.

Include your own font type then. Simple is that. Just like you did on windows Machine.
copy the font to the:
usr/share/fonts
extract the fonts from the site and then drop it in the fonts directory above.
eg: put the fonts in the memory card
----------------------------------------------------
cp /media/mmc1/fonts*.tff /usr/share/fonts
This will copy the fonts to fonts folder from Terminal commandline.
If "cp" failed then try "mv"
mv /media/mmc1/fonts*.tff /usr/share/fonts

Thank you sir! I really want to try your suggestion but I'm very new to Linux.. So I don't really understand how to use command like usr/share/fonts
I found out that invisionplus board uses these fonts { font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif
So I have to copy these fonts to the folder you told me right?

No that is not the font for the device. You need to find the fonts type they using on the site. The fonts tag in the CSS is not the actual font type.
So until you find font files then you can't view their site. Ask them which fonts they using and ask them for True Type font.

yeah and use XTerminal to copy files or move it from memory card or eMMC to your /usr/share/fonts folder
Follow my command above. You could place the file anywhere you like. Just as long you can give the right path to copy or move it to the fonts folder.
In my example I used: Memory card/Fonts
But in your case you can use anything you like, if you have a memory card then you can follow my step. For eMMC then use it may be slightly longer.
