Hi there,

I don't know if you can help me with my problem, but I'll try my luck.

So I'd like to have this wiki (http://free-music.uk.pn/) trilingual (german, 
english, french). The point is that I wanna have all three languages on one 
page next to each other in one column each. Atm I'm using the MakeManyColumns 
recipe for this. (http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/MakeManyColumns). I 
thought this would be a good way to make users aware of the internationality of 
the discussed issues in the wiki and to have all three languages equal to each 
other instead of one language below the other would foster translingual 
collaboration. 

So now I'm just about to see that this way with the three columns is a bit 
disadvantageous: The narrowness of the columns makes reading little fun, it 
seems impossible to have three tables of contents on one page (one toc for each 
column), it's hard to edit the markup since it's getting very much "polluted" 
with the css-code that is necessary to make the three columns and I'm afraid 
there are more problems yet to come.

Anyway my concept of pmwiki is still very narrow so I'd like to know what the 
members of this list who have a deeper and broader comprehension of pmwiki 
think if there is a more usable approach to have three languages on one page 
next to each other and if not what a more practical solution for having a wiki 
with three languages could look like.

Thanks a lot for any ideas and comments,
Torsten
