There would need to be a new configuration variable that listed the supported languages and a metatag to use the negotiated language.
We would still need to provide application logic to render the output appropriately, eg. <@INCLUDE file="mypath/inc.txt<@LANG>"> so I could select inc.txt.de for example. I would think that <@LANG> would default to null.

Richard,
It is not exactly what you want but it is a good starting point. It will be
quick to use, modify and extend. It takes a couple of ms to translate and
we use it as a custom tag. It is good for small translations.
Add the tcf to your site and add the transdate.xml file to the custom tags
directory of the witango server.
We call it like this.
<@TRANSDATE DATE="<@CURRENTTIMESTAMP FORMAT='datetime:%A, %B %d, %Y'>" LANGUAGE="FR"
To add more words to translate just extend the array.

Its running on MS. It's going to be a bilingual CMS and the user will be able to toggle between languages. The date is just one of those things that is static but still needs to be in both languages when toggled.

On linux, you can set the LANG environment variable for the witango process.

Hi all,
I am guessing that there is no formatting attribute to format <@CURRENTDATE FORMAT="%A %B %d, %Y"> into French without physically doing a translation?
Basically I want “Monday January 24, 2005” to translate to “Lundi le 24 de janvier, 2005” or something to that effect (excuse my bad > french)
I am hoping I don’t need to do what I think I have to do.
Anyone have a quick way?
Thanks,
Richard
