As Massimo mentioned here (https://groups.google.com/d/msg/web2py/ q2B9mekNCwk/tUmqU0Iu-ZIJ), with the exception that in the model (db.py) you put, instead of > T.force(request.lang) this (from here (https://groups.google.com/d/msg/web2py/fpFJQlI21w4/ M1BWlGkB6v8J)) > if request.uri_language: T.force(request.uri_language) it works well with welcome application. this is severely underdocumented in the book! i18n section (http:// www.web2py.com/book/default/chapter/04#T-and-Internationalization) needs extending. but now that I read your post again, and as I understand, I don't think you can do it. you can't link from http://site.com/en/content to http://site.com/fr/content with URL(). in order to be able to do so, URL needs a lang parameter, so one can do: French lang must come in between application and controller. EDIT: disregard half. you can hack it. URL() by default produces absolute scheme-less URLs, like this /a/c/f. so to link from http://site.com/en/a/c/f to http://site.com/fr/a/c/f, you prepend URL() call with '/fr', like this: French HTH?

Christopher Did you make this website? http://www.amnesty.org/fr/how-you-can-help Did you build it with web2py? How could I do the same thing in my application?

But the logic is pretty straightforward. There's one more step required: based on whatever user input you want to use to select the language in the first place, you need to set request.lang before calling URL, at least the first time. > >> >> Massimo >> >> >> On Aug 29, 2:26 pm, Alexander Cabezas wrote: >>> I want to change the application language through URL function, but >>> this doesn't expect the "lang" parameter. >>> >>> I did some tests with these >>> adresseshttp://127.0.0.1:8000/es-es/default/index >>> andhttp://127.0.0.1:8000/fr-fr/default/indexand it changed the >>> application language due to "gluon.rewrite". >>> >>> But I want to do this with URL function in order to put in the website >>> a Language Selector (SELECT and A tag). >>> >>> Massimo or somebody else, any clue? >

The parametric router allows: routers = dict( # base router BASE = dict( default_application = app, ), app = dict( default_language = 'en', languages = ['en', 'it', 'pt', 'pt-br'], ), ) and than in the model you do: T.force(request.lang) Not clear whether anybody has ever tested this.

So something like this: http://www.amnesty.org/fr/how-you-can-help and not this: http://voiceofaccess.org/init/default/index?_language=fr-ca ?
