Hi Josh, We are trying to implement the google translator on the following site:
http://www.greyhoundaustralia.co.uk/ At the moment we have not got it implemented in our production version only on our development platform. It appears to work when navigating to url that does not incorporate urlrewriteing once the page has been translated for the first time. eg http://www.greyhoundaustralia.co.uk/Pages/ContactUs.aspx But when navigating to a urlrewritten page such after translation the page navigated to reverts back to the default language (english) http://www.greyhoundaustralia.co.uk/Experience/CAPETRIBULATIONDAYTOUR We have tried to use the Microsoft Bing Translator but we have found its performance slower and would prefer to use Google. Although Bing does maintain the translation between pages wether or not they are UrlRewritten Regards Scott Brady On Apr 22, 4:00 pm, Josh (Google Employee) wrote: > Hi Scott, > > Would you mind pointing me at a specific example we could look at? > Also, can you clarify if this is breaking things on your site, or if > translation is just not working when you click through to some pages? > > The way this works is we add the #googtrans/en/et to the links, which > is just a hash tag.
