I browsed thru the forum, but still can not find a module for language change in run-time, and as the config for language is hardcoded in the general.php that is loaded every time, it's a pain in the ass to change the value and not have trouble later, so i just did something very nasty and fast but it actualy work.. a little script that just changes the general.php with one saved befoure for the language i want... You make a general_en.php file and general_[YOUR_LANG].php ... then add some buttons in page.tpl <a href="./script_en.php"> <img border="0" src="en.gif"> </a> ... The script itself is NASTY as i said : copy this to script_en.php
// NASTY change language by MAXI - admin@bg0.org
// check the file and close the handle, just for safe reasons, you may add some error checking here.. $fileHand = fopen('.\config\general.php', 'r'); fclose($fileHand); // Erase the OLD general.php file $myFile = ".\config\general.php"; unlink($myFile); // Copy the new file with the language options and other options as well $source=".\config\general_en.php"; $dest=".\config\general.php"; if (!copy($source, $dest)) { print ("failed to copy $dest...<br>\n"); } // So now we have this : // $config['language'] = "en";
// And reload the page echo "<META HTTP-EQUIV=\"Refresh\" CONTENT=\"0;url=index.php\">";
Another file for another language and so on and on and on....
The other way is to change directly the value of $config['language']; but it's more dificult well more elegant as well but ... who cares as long as it works... CHMOD-ing your general.php file to 777 is not a good thing to do :) but still who cares :)
