Hi guys, I'm developing a website in three languages: English, Spanish and
Italian.
I let users change language through a select field
<form action="/i18n/setlang/" method="POST" name="language_form">
{% csrf_token %}
<select id="language" name="language"
onchange="document.language_form.submit();">
{% for language in LANGUAGES %}
{% if language.0 == LANGUAGE_CODE %}
<option selected="selected" value="{{language.0}}">{{language.1}}</option>
{% else %}
<option value="{{language.0}}">{{language.1}}</option>
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
</select>
</form>
For use i18n_patterns I added this statement in my settings
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
'django.core.context_processors.i18n',
)
and added some urls to the urlpatterns with the i18n_patterns function in
this way:
urlpatterns = patterns(
...
url(r'^i18n/', include('django.conf.urls.i18n')),
...
)
urlpatterns += i18n_patterns('',
# other urls i need to translate
)
Now, if I go to the home (www.mysite.com) in get the url www.mysite.com/en
(english is default language), and contents are translated in english (due
to trans statement in templates).
If I go to www.mysite.com/it/ writing the url in the address bar, contents
are translated in italian, the selected option in select field is Italian
and so on (it seems it works correctly!).
BUT
if I change the language though the select field (for example from spanish
to italian) apparently doesn't happen nothing: the page is reloaded with
the old language (spanish), but if I delete the language prefix from the
address bar (calling www.mysite.com), when the page is reloaded I obtain
www.mysite.com/it/, it seems the view work for a half or something.
Before to use the language prefix in the urls, the language change work
correcly, so there is something that doesn't work properly.
I think it is cause of the prefix in the url, because the set_language view
make a redirect to the same page (with the old address and not with the
new).
Am I missing something? How do you deal with this?
Thanks in advance
