Hi,

I am a student working on my project dissertation and I have in mind to use
the Apertium web-service to provide translation capability to my project (I
will use it in a website), as it is a very good alternative to paid
services such as Google Translate. I have been warned that sometimes the
web-service is unstable, but because of the objectives of my project,
implementing the Apertium-apy for my own use is out of the range of the
project itself.

At first, I tried to implement some silly code to learn how to use the
web-service (I tried the Javascript library and the XML-RPC) but I could
not make it work. I ask in the IRC channel and with the help of Unhammer
and TinoDridiksen (thank you very much to both, by the way, :D) I managed
to get the JSONP REST API to work.

However, I have seen that the Javascript library(
http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Apertium_web_service#Javascript_library )
offers greater capabilities that would make the coding easier. I tried to
implement an example by importing the library and then calling the
web-service as mentioned in the wiki (apertium.getSupportedLanguagePairs(),
for example) but does not recognise the apertium object. In fact, when
looking to the source code of the website in the web browser the JavaScript
library seems to be empty. I was wondering whether I was doing something
wrong or the JS library is not accessible any more.

Thank you very much for your help,

Manex
