Localizing data stored in database

Post by coolkrishna »

Hi,
I have to develop a website that stores all its contents in database. This means i can not use language files for translation. Can anyone suggest me how to translate dynamically generated database data in user language..................................

Wow, that is a tough one.
I'd store your "language" files in a separate table. Each piece of content with a separate entry for each language. Then pull the data based on the launguage.

Actually i want real time translation because I don't know what data is stored in database table at particular instant as site users dynamically add content.
