you just put something like
<+ hputs [::lang::bestlang pl {
tekst po Polsku
} de {
text in Deutsh
} en {
text in English
}] +>
Or, a bit more complex "variant":
<+ switch [::lang::langmatch [list en pl de] {
pl {
+>
tekst po Polsku
<+
}
en {
+>
text in English
<+
}
de {
+>
text in Deutsch
<+
}
} +>
The second allows commands - which is why I prefer it. But the first looks
nicer :)
Anyway, the difference is significant: apache allows negotiating entire
pages, ::lang allows choosing best language for specific
paragraphs/parts... Which is imho much better...
