Hi Roberto,
the first thing which comes to me, is to have link to 'session handler'
(/session/language/en) dynamic. Every time you load some page, you can rebuild
it.
So, for example, if you are on startpage.html, link could look like
/sesssion/en/startpage.html.
Another solution, would be to encode the link in GET variable. The link would
look like /session/language/en?current_address=startpage.html.
Finally, it would be possible to make it in more RESTful way and keep in every
link to content, on your page, language code (/en/startpage.html), but this is
not too good for search engines and indexing (I guess?).
