I originally thought a db was necessary but was talked out of it when I saw this method in action: Store a language set in name/value pairs in a text file, one set per language, like this:
GoodMorning=Good Morning GoodDay=Good Day Goodbye=Goodbye GoodMorning=Guten Morgen GoodDay=Guten Tag Goodbye=Auf Wiedersehen Then read the file in via cffile as a structure on page load. All of the stock text on your page is the structure's output. This works blazing fast. I was really surprised to see how fast. In some cases 10ms or less to pull in a template's text. There's a lot more to this, like the exact retrieval code, mechanics of storage and allowance to automatically switch from one language to another with a click. Let me know if you want the gory details and I'll put up something more substantial.
