Thanks for your reply ..
I have some more issues in Zend_Translate ..
1. How could I find that this is the best time to split the translation file
into 2 or 3 files? I mean, how could i find the size of translations? What
is the max. size for 1 translation file?
2. In your suggestion "Initiate Zend_Translate in the bootstrap with the
general (and small)
translation source." what did you mean by "general (and small) translation
source"? Is that I should I have all the common translation code (used in
all the VIEWS) into one gerneral file and some view specific code into
another files? If YES, then where should I initiate the rest of the (other
then general) translation files?
3. One more MAJOR issue which i am facing is I have convereted .mo file in
FRENCH in utf-8 encoding but when i open my site for french, that is
changing my browser's character encoding setting to
"Western (ISO-8859-1)" which is not displaying me the correct conversion. If
I manually change my browser's encoding setting to UTF-8 then it displays
the correct translation for french but on page refrech it again reset to
Western (ISO-8859-1). Could anyone please suggest something for this?
4. I have a small paragraph (of 2-3 lines) in english which needs to be
converted to french. I have added the translation too and successfully
converetd the .mo file but it is not converting the paragraph text. It is
converting the ONE LINER text but NOT a complete paragraph. What should i do
for this? Is there is anything else which i have to do for paragraph
conversion?
I know my problems are quite strainge but this is what I am facing :(
Could anyone help in this ...
