This Tamil Keyboard types Tamil online in the Tamil99, InScript or Transliteration layout. Consonant clusters and vowel signs join up correctly as you type, so conjuncts and matras are placed where they belong. Type phonetically in Latin and it is converted as you go.

Transliteration

Some of the mappings for the transliteration are A(அ), AA(ஆ), AI(ஐ), AU(ஔ), k(க்), ka(க), nga(ங), nya(ஞ), tta(ட), nna(ண), La(ழ), lla(ள), Ra(ற), Na(ன), sha(ஶ), ssa(ஷ), ksa(க்ஷ), fa(ஃப), za(ஃஜ), kha(ஃக), mm(ஂ), K(ஃ), '(்), ;'('), `1(௧), ``(௰), `-(௱), `=(௲), and $$(௹).

Semicolon(;) can be used as a partition so that what is one the left and what is on the right are transliterated separately. For example, n;ya will produce ந்ய instead of ஞ.
