As Andreas said, this needs to be in Bugzilla. The i18n code should receive a list of directories to look for the resources. Loop through the list adding all the catalogues" publication, then template, next template ..., global. (Assuming 1.4 did not change i18n functionality) As a hack, you can edit the catalogue finder to add the templates. See: http://solprovider.com/lenya/i18npriority Add a few of these: <xi:include> <xsp:attribute name="href">context:/lenya/pubs/TEMPLATE-NAME-HERE/lenya/resources/i18n/#xpointer(//message)</xsp:attribute> </xi:include> I may have some of the path wrong. Are templates under "pubs" in 1.4? solprovider --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
