I've just been doing similar... I have different tables for each language. The site administrators can edit these in the CMS -- they are set up on a permissions basis to access content in certain languages.
When a user visits the site a session variable is set up called session.lang defaulted to "" which retrieves content from a table "tableName" -- then if they choose Swedish for example it is set to "sv_" -- this will then retrieve content from sv_tableName through dynamic query. This is handy in this instance as there is a pile of textual content on this site. Have other people done this or are there more suitable methods as I have several languages to go yet! d ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, October 06, 2003 11:05 AM Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] Multi-language site > We personally use tables for this, and load them into Mem.....if you need > any info....please get in touch. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Allan Cliff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 06 October 2003 10:55 > To: CF - List > Subject: [ cf-dev ] Multi-language site > > > We are thinking of making a site multilanguage.
