It's a good way to do it, I wrote an extension to FastTemplates (and
the phplib templates.inc) to help with such an event so you could have
multiple levels of templates, falling back eventually (and hopefully,
or it's broken) to a default set. The defaults could be English (and
no-language, others could be fr, es, pt, Klingon, whatever.
A different name to access the site could look utterly different, just
have most of the same content on the page, in different places. I was
going to use it to re-skin websites according to who it was for
(originally it was going to be a 'virtual bookshop' that companies
could brand for themselves).

Take a look at the output of phpinfo() for the two virtual sites,
especially
HTTP_SERVER_VARS["HTTP_HOST"]
HTTP_SERVER_VARS["SERVER_NAME"]
Server_name is likely to be the 'main name' (www.example.com), but
http_host should be the name it's called by (not always the same
thing)
