The following comment has been added to this issue: Author: Ross Gardler Created: Thu, 26 May 2005 11:50 AM Body: Can you describe what you think the problem would be with this propsed solution of extending skinconf.xml?
For example: <i18n lang="en"> <token name="lastPublished" value="Last Published"/> <token name="copyright" value="Copyright"/> </i18n> <i18n lang="??"> <token name="lastPublished" value="???????"/> <token name="copyright" value="???????"/> </i18n> This schema allows any token to be added, so customisation of skins would not be a problem. --------------------------------------------------------------------- View this comment: http://issues.cocoondev.org//browse/FOR-506?page=comments#action_12431 --------------------------------------------------------------------- View the issue: http://issues.cocoondev.org//browse/FOR-506 Here is an overview of the issue: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: FOR-506 Summary: Do not hard-code site-visible message strings in skin files Type: Improvement Status: Unassigned Priority: Minor Project: Forrest Components: Skins (general issues) Versions: 0.7-dev Assignee: Reporter: Pedro I. Sanchez Created: Thu, 26 May 2005 10:49 AM Updated: Thu, 26 May 2005 11:50 AM Environment: N/A Description: Text strings like "Copyright", "Published", and "Search" are hardcoded into skin files like site2xhtml.xsl. When creating web sites in languages other than English the web developer is forced to create local versions of these skin files with the appropriated translations. Instead, the DTD for the skinconf.xml should be improved to allow these translations to be specified in this file. This would make Forrest much easier to use. --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
