[mediamind]

Hi,

I would like to find some more info on using other languages in an existing PHP/MySQL apllication.

How would i implement:
Russian, polish, greek, turkish, korean, japanese, etc...

Can you point me in the right direction?

Kind regards,
Gerry.

I'd try using language templates.

Example:

page.php

<?
include("lng_page_$lang.php");

echo "$title\n";
echo "<br><br>$text1\n";
echo "<p>$last_text";
?>

lng_page_ca.php

<?
$title = "Títol";
$text1 = "Avui fa bon dia";
$last_text = "Adeu!";
?>

lng_page_en.php

<?
$title = "Title";
$text1 = "We're having a nice day";
$last_text = "Bye!";
?>

You just need to declare a default $lang and prepare links for other available $lang identifiers.
