All the internationalization based on CSS for Webtop (at least with the version I've used) requires you to recompile the app for a different language. That's not too much of a problem, just generate different versions of the app for different languages.
It would be good to have dynamic CSS support at runtime, but a workaround could be to put all the strings into an LZO, with different LZOs for different languages. That should work, shouldn't it? Of course you are limited to SWF8 and DHTML then, since there's still no support for LZOs with AS3 based runtimes, as far as I know. 2010/2/15 P T Withington <[email protected]>: > I believe some use CSS styles to achieve internationalization, although > currently LZX does not support dynamically changing styles, so I'm not sure > exactly how this is handled.
