Hi - I've searched and searched without success.
I have a legacy Perl search application.
Although my database content is only in Englishm I want to use the API
so that the word gets translated on the fly, and searches the
translated word in order to return English results.
Like this :
User types in search for : acier
API translates to : steel
My perl function searches for : steel ........... and returns the
results.
Why is this not working (the $title is being passed successfully) :
google.language.translate("$title", "fr", "en", function(result) {
if (!result.error) {
var sendToPerl;
document.getElementById("sendToPerl").value=result.translation;
}
NOW PERL BEGINS :
this returns empty :
<input type="hidden" id="sendToPerl" value="$sendToPerl">
so does this :
document.write('<input type="text" name="sendToPerl" value="' +
sendToPerl + '">');
Altho FireFox does populate the text box with :
[object HTMLInputElement]
THANKS - Syl
