Over from Evolt this morning, there's more talk of localization with PHP - this time making it much easier for non-programmers to use.
In Simple Localization with PHP, the author shows you how to create a function (setstring), that will automagically translate things for you - everything from simple words to larger sentences. It's all about building the right language file to support the script. You can even use it to provide translations of just single items in a page, not the entire page.
I know that making your sites accessible for the world is a big thing, but I really can't see the use beyond large corporations that need it because they sell products in other countries. Simple sites like this one just wouldn't benefit as much - especially with all of the content that's added daily here (and as much slang as I use....)
