Anyway, as I tried to ask before.... -----Original Message----- From: Ian Sparks Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2002 5:06 PM To: Webware-Discuss (E-mail) Subject: i18n ( Internationalization). All, Has anyone done anything with Internationalization in a Webware app that makes use of Fun/FormKit and Cheetah? My thought is to store a language-code 'us','ca','de','fr' etc in the session and then have dictionaries which contain language-specific text for identifiers in my code. So F/FK is used to supply the basic controls and validation (error messages could be a problem, all in English as I recall). Cheetah would pull out text from whatever language-dictionary is passed in. A loadLanguage method can look in some directory for servletName_dict.CountryCode and fall back on servletName_dict.default if it doesn't find it (where .default is defined by some global setting, it might be .us or .fr or whatever). It may also be necessary to have cheetah templates which format pages differently for different languages. I have no experience in this field so I don't know what happens with right-to-left languages in browsers by default. Anyone else used this approach? Pitfalls, advice? I'm not so much trying to create an multi-language site as write code that is prepared for it. - IanS. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility Learn to use your power at OSDN's High Performance Computing Channel http://hpc.devchannel.org/ _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
