For our Content Translation system (
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_translation ) we'd like to apply
machine translation to marked-up HTML, in particular links. This needs to
work reliably under reordering; for instance
'the <a href="a1">big</a> <a href="a2">dog</a>'
should become
'el <a href="a2">perro</a> <a href="a1">grande</a>'
with the links reordered. To handle HTML tree transformation subtleties
consistently across MT engines, we have developed a system called LinearDoc
which can transform inline HTML from a source sentence to a target
sentence. In order to work, it just requires an MT engine that can work on
plaintext and provide mapping information. See
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_translation/LinearDoc for a more
detailed description of how it works.
Thanks for the detailed suggestions -- I'll experiment based on your
suggestions and see what works best!

David
