Unfortunately, I'm on WinXP. I'll try the filter idea.

Thanks again.

Interesting problem.  Are you on a unix system?  One solution would be
to create a symlink in the directory with your vm files:

en -> .

This would allow Dreamweaver to resolve the references in the
filesystem.

That is a pretty akward.  It's difficult to use static tools like
Dreamweaver to edit dynamic web applications because requests to
commands (and thus the vm files) are converted with the additional path,
but requests for image files are not.

Another possible solution to this problem (the one I recommend if you
want to preserve your directory structure) is to build a servlet filter
that munges the paths for image (and css) paths.  The filter would
handle all requests for /includes/* and /images/*, check the
Accept-Language header (just like the Shunt), and prepend /en or /jp
before passing the request down the chain.
