How will you create a bi-lingual site (multiple languages) ?
Answer Posted / abinash grahacharya
I am working on an application which is multilingual we have
basically 3 languages , french, dutch and English
Our structure doing it best way...
What we are doing ?
The structure of the files are same but we are using 3
language files for the site as fr.php, nl.php and en.php
language selected by user we are keeping that in cookie and
if there is no cookie we are setting french as default and
in cookie.
How it works ?
Based on cookie we are including the language file in
controller or main page and it is effecting the site.
Example : suppose there is a button called sendemail and the
value or button text be different in three language
in fr - Réponse
in nl - Respond
in en - Send
so in en.php
<?php
define("button_text",Send);
?>
so in fr.php
<?php
define("button_text",Réponse );
?>
so in nl.php
<?php
define("button_text",Respond);
?>
so in main controller or index page
<?php
include($_COOKIE['languague'].".php");
<input type='button' name='sendemail' value='<?php echo
button_text;?>'>
Why it is good ?
It will work very well and we can use any new language in
site like spenish - how ? create only language file called
sp.php and define value and set language cookie it will work
Thanks
