I already locally modified the build.xml and style.xsl files so that theyn can deal with localized versions of the web pages. > I think that I would like to see different subdirectories on the web > server for different languages: > > www.jmol.org/en > www.jmol.org/fr > www.jmol.org/es > www.jmol.org/de Ok, but what do we do of all the other files ? (.cml, .mol, .xyz, .... files). Do we copy them in each directory ? (space waste) Do we make a www.jmol.org/common subdirectory to put all those files and change all the links in the web pages ? (lot of work I guess). > The xml/xsl translation system probably can help us generate this, but I > still do not understand how it works. I think I can modify it to generate the solution, once we found it :), I have a little background with xml/xsl. Just have to decide what the solution is ... I already modified the xml/xsl part to generate the french translation for the home page with the navigation part translated at the top of the page. ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
