Thanks this is a cool addition as I have people of all languages visit from time to time, but most are english
I modified the code for no submit button.
Change this line:
<select size="1" style="font-size:8pt;font family:arial;color:000000;" name="lp" onChange=submit(); return true>
and this line:
<input type="hidden" class="fields" alt="translator" input type = "Submit" value="Translate" border="0">
Its working nice

What I would like is an Russian->English->Russian translator (and maybe Ukranian as well), the AV Babelfish only goes one way, any idea where I can find one?
The reasson why is because one of my websites and forums are likely to recieve English, Russian and Ukranian visitors, and I would like for them to be able to post in their native language |

I tried both versions in my inc.footer.asp, but got error messages for each, using a Snitz testforum on my site.
Is there something in the code I need to replace with specific data?
Edited:
Trial and error finally got me there!
I had no idea how to "include" - I thought just paste it into the code!  |

Now that I have successfully installed and formatted this mod my browswer suddenly does not display Spanish or German characters on the Babelfish site.
It does fine on any other web page, just not Babelfish.
Can the mod have changed a setting in my browser when I accessed the site through the link?
After eliminating all other possibilities I come to that conclusion because: - the problem only began after implementation of the mod
- it only fails with Spanish and German translation

Hello,
I've a customized implementation of the Babelfish mod on my page:
http://www.segwaychat.com/forum/
Altavista recently upgraded their site and the way they do Babelfish. I use a customized version of their free toolbar (see site.)
If this is something you guys find desirable, I can put together a little "mod" with the graphic/code/implementation instructions.. etc.
Happy Thanksgiving! |

I also like the style of your drop-down menu a lot.
Would you mind giving me the script for that? |

OK, here it is. This is just a continuation of Sy's mod, so I won't start a new thread about it.
It should work with all versions of Snitz and any website (you don't even need Snitz for this one.)
DEMO: http://www.segwaychat.com/forum/ (Scroll down to bottom of page to see the mod)
1) Download the following file: http://www.segwaychat.com/files/babelfish.zip
2) Unzip the files into a temporary directory and upload the file "babelfish.asp" to your Snitz forum directory.
3) Upload the images "go.gif" and "babelfish-tranlate-navbar.gif" to your ".../images/" directory which should be located in the root of your web site. If you wish to keep the images somewhere else, be sure to edit the location on lines 8 and 27 of the "babelfish.asp" file.
4) Put the following include statement wherever you want the toolbar to appear on your page:
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="babelfish.asp" -->
That's it! Should be an easy install. Let me know if you have any problems. |

Many thanks, Frank!
Now how about the style of your drop-down menu?
You know that imitation is the highest form of flattery, right?
I would not use your colors and exact layout, but would appreciate the Java script so I can see how it is done.
Your site is the closest I have seen to what I visualize for mine.
You seem to have put the menu in the same position on both sites, and worked the pages around it to fit.
I suppose this eliminates the need for a frames set-up...(which I use on my web now). |
