multi lingual web design

[AUSTRALIS]

Are there any multi lingual tutorials or videos on setting up a multi lingual site

Welcome to TalkGraphics

Not that I am aware of. A common solution is to create two sites, or a separate site for each language. Then offer buttons that link to the specific language.

So if I am creating a website in English and French, I create the main site in English, for example. Then I create a sub-folder on the server, and call this sub-folder french, and publish the French version to this folder as if it was a separate website, complete with all HTML pages and the index_htm_files folder.

The address links would be sitename.com (or whatever extension) for the English version and sitename.com/french for the French version.

Does this make any sense?

Hi Gary, that's the same way I realize multi lingual pages.
Cheers!
