OK Paul, i'll never try it again ... i promise. :)

But the guy who asked the question said he's running CF5:

"I am working on macromedia cold fusion 5 and oracle 8i as backend for the
development."

And depending on which languages you're aiming for, using CF5 isn't necessarily
difficult, so i didn't want that he was left with that impression. But i'll leave this
territory to you. :)

good for you and in the long run too bad for the client. it's non-standard,
it won't port, it dead-ends the data, yadda yadda yadda. i can't agree
w/doing things like that now.

well i can say that i have done chinese language apps w/cf5 (when there was
only cf5) and i know of someone else in hong kong who was forced to do the
same thing (at about the same time). neither of us would do that now. its
just not worth it.

in any case, please re-read the subject. it says "Multilingual". that's not
something that should be attempted with cf5.
