I would prefer another kind of building international Sites

Think of a set of text you store outsite your .taf as .inc Data or as
Data-Set from a database.


Could work like

@@user$language=de
...
<@INCLUDE FILE="/text/@@user$language/text.txt">
...


or you read a set of text from a database into an array an do set the text
from the array..

I guess that is much more secure against errors.


And be sure to have the text read by native speaking peaple :-)

> <@ASSIGN Text value="Wï¿½hlen sie zuerst die Anzahl der Passagieren aus">
MUST be singular
> <@ASSIGN Text value="Wï¿½hlen sie zuerst die Anzahl der Passagiere aus">
