What do you mean I do realize. I'm just wondering, why write an email 
to the matter is insignificant.

When you have this situation be happy. Other site, other content, and 
other target groups.

Nano is a editor, very simple editor for Linux. http://www.nano-editor.org
Which website is the w3c compliant? No website that has many users and has 
a lot of interaction.

Correct.

I simply asked a question, nothing more, nothing less. I looked for an 
alternative. I do not need a web developer. I'm not a web developer. 
I manage a few sites, most of my Customers are hosting customers.

I have not asked about the internationalization of web pages, I ask for an 
alternative a Pear package. As I have also written the websites are manually 
created and activated for years.I want to try out just a little and learn if 
you do not understand that the problem is not with me. Internationalization 
between large and small sites is the difference. The websites that I manage 
only a different date. For this need not study. That goes with nano and a
good Database Sheet. Learning will never stop. The only thing that changes
is the speed. As a child we hjaben knowledge absorbed, today I sweep only.


Thank you for help, Kind Regards
Silvio

No offense meant, but therein lies the problem. Two fold:

1. You asked a question without the intent to learn and practice.

2. By your own admission, you are not a web developer and as such you cannot 
use our advice.

This is similar to me asking about brain-surgery -- I don't know much about it, 
but I would be very reluctant to operate.

You also said:

> I'm just wondering, why write an email to the matter is insignificant.

On that point, I must agree -- I probably should not have answered. I should 
have seen you were having difficulties understanding what was being offered and 
passed on my contribution -- my apologies.

I also realize there is a language problem here -- while I cannot speak your 
language, what you say in mine and my replies, may be misinterpreted -- but in 
any case, no offense was meant.

I wish you well.

Cheers,

tedd

Indeed. I'm guessing that when Silvio said "All websites are created manually. 
(nano + html/css Tags)" he meant "All of the websites are created manually. 
(nano + html/css Tags)" meaning the sites he's working on rather than every 
site in existence.

Kevin,

No apologies necessary, at least not to me. I always appreciate help and
I probably wouldn't have figured out your way on my own, at least not in
relation to what I am trying to do. And you've just proved once again that
there is almost always more than one way to accomplish a goal. I like this
solution as much as what I ended up with and will keep it handy.

Thanks!
