Abstract:

Outline: This session presents an overview of the many issues involved in
writing a multilingual site. These include: using multilingual templates;
correct handling of language-dependent data such as dates; sorting;
character sets; dealing with accented characters. The power of mod_perl is
used to implement a user interface that allows users to switch languages
easily at any time. A specialized parser for Template Toolkit is presented
that allows compile-time parsing and caching of multilingual templates, as
well as a database schema for storing multilingual data.
