Re: I18N by pages
Hello, Maybe another idea if I understand well what you want. So you want to include a file, specific to the current locale definition. I need about the same feature, and was looking for a better way than mine to solve this. The only think is that I include a i18n _file_ in a general template, and i do not redirect the user direclty to this i18n file. You have only one tiles-def.xml, one struts-config.xml, one properties file per locale. The idea is to have the file name locale-specific (so stored in properties file), and to call the file via the properties file, so the correct, locale-specific, name is called. It gives : In the main file, where i include, i have, in state of simple : Than, I have somewhere in my tiles_def.xml something like : And in my properties file (locale specific) something like custom.help=../help/customHelp_en.jsp and for another language, I have custom.help=../help/customHelp_fr.jsp Than, i need to modify the last line, and to specify it differently in my properties files, for all my locales. But i can have a different file per locale. Maybe this can be adapt at your specific needs. On the other way, maybe there's a better way to do this that mine ... ? Of course, something great would the use of ! Hope this can help someone ...

Re: I18N by pages
This is just an idea, depending on what sort of differences you have
on your JSP pages, it may or not work. As a trite and unrealistic
example, let's say that your design team has told you that blue text
will work better for your English-speaking audience, but purple text
will work better for your French-speaking audience. Simply create two
stylesheets:
lang_EN.css:
body { color: blue; }
lang_FR.css:
body { color: purple; }
Then, in your JSP page, you'd just include the appropriate
locale-specific CSS stylesheet to achieve the look you want. (sounds
like a really quick custom tag.)
I'm sure that color is not the extent of the differences between what
you would want in your French-specific JSP's and your English-specific
JSP's, but with all of the positioning and other capabilities in CSS,
you could probably do a lot with this approach.

I used tiles for several years quite successfully. For my most recent project I switched to using the SiteMesh decoration via response filter approach. I can imagine there are some complex page layout webapps where Tiles might work better. For a standard webapp with a header/navArea/content/footer breakdown, SiteMesh is more than sufficient and *way* simpler to configure than the tiles approach. Unless you have a huge investment already in using Tiles, I recommend checking out SiteMesh as an alternative that would be compatible with the custom ActionMapping approach suggested by Jeff. You can see an example of SiteMesh in the Equinox simple webapp starter project put together by Matt Raible.

Re: I18N by pages
Yaroslav, Tiles already contains 18N support. If your tiles config is called tiles-config.xml, the controller will look for tiles named in the user's locale first (tiles-config_fr.xml, tiles-config_de.xml) and then default to the original if cannot be found. Use this as a way of presenting different views to the user based on the locale. Yahoo! Sports Rekindle the Rivalries.

Re: I18N by pages
I haven't looked into the guts of how forwards to Tiles definitions work, but I think the basic idea is still sound. It's just that the path attribute of your forward is now the name of a Tiles definition instead of a JSP page, so in addition to a separate JSP page for each supported locale, you'll also need a separate Tiles definition for each locale. That's starting to look like a lot of duplication of effort, though. If you have a lot of pages and intend to support a lot of languages, you're looking at a lot of different JSP pages and a massive tiles configuration. Have you considered locale-specific CSS files to give a different presentation to the same JSP page?

Re: I18N by pages
Hi! French is usually more verbose than English. At times the HTML page must be really different to accomodate the French. In general, I always design the page in French first as for it will work out fine in English afterwards. French was only an example, I think of Ukrainian instead, but didn't want to mention it since it could be confusing for the community :) Best regards Yaroslav Novytskyy - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: I18N by pages
Hi! Yes this is a possibillity. But what if I already have different forwards for my action: "success", "info", "lalala". I will have to change this to "success_en", "info_en", "lalala_en" and to add "success_fr", "info_fr", "lalala_fr" and to include additional logic to action to check what language is requested by user. This logic can be extracted to all actions base class. But what if I would like to include new languages? Normal step I would like to perform is just to create new (approprietly named) jsp's not to rewrite the whole struts-config and to add lots of new forwards: "success_es", "info_es", "lalala_es", like this. Here I can propose to override mapping.findForward or somehow like this... In this case findForward would check the user requested language, find a forward path add/insert locale suffix and return link to file. Please comment, what do you think about this?

Re: I18N by pages
I'm confused here. You have 2 resource bundles called: resource_fr.properties resource_en.properties They both have the same keys but different values. The Struts framework will load the appropriate value from the correct bundle based on the locale language. That's it !! One jsp can obtain all of its string values from the bundle. In your example, you had mentioned that you'd like the title to be different based on the locale. You can also include the HTML in the resource file but IMHO this not the most efficient way. French is usually more verbose than English. At times the HTML page must be really different to accomodate the French. In general, I always design the page in French first as for it will work out fine in English afterwards. - Glenn [Martin: très bien !] On 6/24/05, Yaroslav Novytskyy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi! > > This is exactli what I'd like to avoid and use l10n on pages level not > level of defined strings in message bundles for different languages.

Re: I18N by pages
Hi! This is exactli what I'd like to avoid and use l10n on pages level not level of defined strings in message bundles for different languages. I don't want to use the english (html) design and to translate english phrases to french, which will be included into english design. I want to use french _page_. That meens french design with includes french text - standalone french jsp.

I18N by pages
Hello, all! I just wonder if there is an existing (tested, prooved) way (a kind of development pattern) for Struts to make internationalization not by message resources but by pages (JSPs, templates)? The point is that using message resources deleloper can only define a string value for different locales. For example for "en" welcome=aaa for "fr" welcome=bbb, and you include it like "welcome">. This produces "aaa" for "en" and "bbb" for "fr". That makes you limited to localizing only strings, but not the format. E.G. I would like to output "aaa" for "en" and "bbb" for "fr". And this not the matter of defining this strings (bbb) in message bundles, but I would like to use separate JSPs for "en" and "fr" and that is the point. I would like have two jsp files: page1.en.jsp with content of "aaa" and page1.fr.jsp with "bbb". (P.S. this reduces much (maybe even terminates) the mess with message bundles).
