Hi,

I agree that it is getting of topic but still think that i18n is a sophisticated issue that requires multiple approaches with three main ones, (each impacting XSLT design, to some degree) typically to be used in that order:

- Separate files as Andrew proposes, whenever possible, typically for large text sections - Translation dictionaries for common/frequent terms and expressions, typically in reference tables - Attribute i18n for custom labels and display attributes, hence the XSLT question, as namespaces and XSLT make this very easy

As for @lang or @xml:lang, the value point for @xml:lang is that if we have a standard way of defining language selection, processing can better be generalized. The same should be true for attribute i18n.

Thank you,

Cheers,
ac

Friends --

This has been fun, and is clearly an important topic, but it is off topic for XSL-List.

Please take this discussion off list or to another forum.

Thank you.
