1. It could work, but for me to test it I would like to get clarification on two things: a) How do you enable the <i18n ..> </i18n> thing to work? I just put your code in my web site and Forrest complains with skinconf.xml:369:9: Element type "i18n" must be declared. skinconf.xml:370:50: Element type "token" must be declared. b) lang="en", what does it mean? If "en" refers to the system language in the host where the web developer is working (the locale setting) then this doesn't work. I am developing an all-Spanish web site while working in an all english host environment. 2. What about the non-tokenized strings like "Search"? --------------------------------------------------------------------- View this comment: http://issues.cocoondev.org//browse/FOR-506?page=comments#action_12433 --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 2:26 PM 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.
