Whoops, I pressed send by accident... Anyway you can checkout:
http://kenai.com/projects/universalcake/ for an example of the language changing mechanism. As far as the database, you will have a record id (the automatic index) but you may require a semi-unique field that ties all your translations of one source document together. I use the title. db.define_table('page', Field('title'), Field('section_id', db.section), Field('body', 'text'), Field('created_on', 'datetime', default=request.now), Field('created_by', db.auth_user, default=user_id), Field('active', 'boolean'), Field('language')) # Field for language (ie. en for example) Selecting entires Controller examples: wiki.py def show_active(): pages = db(db.page.active=='True').select(db.page.id, db.page.title, orderby=db.page.title) return dict(pages=pages) def show_english(): pages = db(db.page.language=='en').select(db.page.id, db.page.title, orderby=db.page.title) return dict(pages=pages) def show_active_english(): pages = db((db.page.active=='True') & (db.page.language=='en')).select(db.page.id, db.page.title, orderby=db.page.title) return dict(pages=pages) View example wiki/show_active_english {{extend 'layout.html'}} <h1>Show Active English Pages</h1> [ {{=A('search', _href=URL(r=request, f='search'))}} ]<br /> <ul>{{for page in pages:}} {{=LI(A(page.title, _href=URL(r=request, f='show', args=page.id) ))}} {{pass}}</ul> [ {{=A('create page', _href=URL(r=request, f='create'))}} ] Don't know where you want to deploy, I think the above would run GAE, have not tested it though...
