Just a thought, maybe you should consider just using one html template for all the 
languages and substitute the appropriate translation into the html, like you do with 
the rest of the dynamic code.  Use some flag like ##popacounts## or the like.  This is 
the way that I've seen a lot of other programs do it, and I think it makes sense 
because:
You standardize on one set of html.  If the html changes, the only thing the 
maintainer of the translation needs to do is add an entry if any new items have been 
added to the menu, he doesn't need to worry if there's a big layout change like 0.26 
to 0.32 (the QNX look).  This keeps the distribution size a bit smaller.  It also 
makes it easier to create a translation; you grab the english list and right there are 
all the phrases you need to translate.
