You can use resourcebundle where you keep all the labels and with server
side script (servlet or jsp), read labels from resource bundle and display.
So if u want to change language, u just have to change resource bundle (put
another file with labels in that language).

Subject: Re: web site internationalization
I am using xml and xslt. The xml is generated with servlets
and all translatable text is looked up from ResourceBundles.
I separate all translatable images into a separate directory
and the path to that directory is a xslt parameter to the
processor.
I use the Xalan xslt processor. You can find that at
http://xml.apache.org/xalan/index.html
You may be able to rely on client side processing now if you
restrict
your client browsers to IE5.5+ and Netscape 6.

Subject: web site internationalization
Hi,
This is a bit off topic so I appologize in advance, but
I think there might be people on this list who have
delt with similar internationalization issues.
I'm a software engineer and am looking
for ways to make the internationalization of our web site
more managable. Currently we maintain seperate html
documents for each lanaguage. Since the layout of the documents
is very similar (just the displayed text
differs in language) I figured there must be a mechanism
for maintaining a single html document and generating the
translated html documents from this single document. I'm
thinking of using xml & xslt as a possible solution. Has
anyone used similar solutions ?
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on this issue
or if someone could point me to other resources.
Thanks :-)
-Sher
