You're going to have to give all of your strings id's and update them all .. which means loading the new language file completely and doing lots of parsing ... personally I think its better to do it server side. |
So maybe just have a JS onchange function for the select box and once that function runs just have a reload page statement and change the session variable for the language!?

A directory is more semantically structured and can you can geo-target a directory a lot easier than something like index.php?lang=en.
en.site.com / fr.site.com
or
site.com/en/ site.com/fr
is the way to go. Be sure to the ISO Country identifiers (fr/de/en/es/it/jp).
I setup something similar a few weeks ago with Wordpress MU. I have an English and Polish blog running off the same system. ammado blog + Polski blog ammado |
Was planing on something along the line of site.com/en/, is there much difference or is it better to use a subdomain like en.site.com over site.com/en/?
