PHP - Language Files
At the minute i am using variables in my tpl files in place of plain text so users can change the language the page is shown in. eg. the tpl file would include:
$lang->hello; and the replacement would be $lang['hello'] = 'hello'; the php file would include the language class which replaces the variable in the language file with the array value in the relevant language file. but what happens when i have a phrase with a needed variable in the middle? $lang['msgs'] = 'you have '.$msgs.' messages'; i cant have 'you have' and 'messages' as seperate lang variables as phrases are constructed differently in other languages? so how do i accomplish this? hopefully i habe explained this ok. Similar TutorialsHello everyone For a multilingual website we have to be able to open 1 page in 4 different languages. For example, product 'A' is in Dutch, English, French and German. How can I open the right language file? At the moment I use Code: [Select] http://www.zinncosmetics.nl/shop/product_info.php?products_id=36?language=de but it doesn't work. It allways opens the default Dutch pages. What do I do wrong? I don't have very much php experience (newbie) so please don't make it too difficult for me. Thanks for all help! I have a class which loads language files and adds the content(which is an array) into a phrases array. It's performed perfectly when i included common_lang.php and login_lang.php. However when i include common_lang.php and profiles_lang.php something weird happens. I have a blank space at the top of the profile pages. And firebug reports that the content of <head> is now empty and its shifted all of it to the <body>. Like i say this only happens when including profiles_lang.php but works with other files like login_lang.php. The content of each language file is the same apart from the data in the array. $l = array( 'USERNAME' => 'Username', ); this is the language class which is being called in profiles.php like Asf_Language::loadFile('profiles'); The same call is used in other pages replacing 'profiles' with the name of the language file to call. <?php /* ASF A Simple Forum * (c) ASF A Simple Forum 2010 - 2011 * * @licence http://www.asimpleforum.co.uk/licence * * $page includes/languageClass.php * $author Carl Markham * $created 14/06/2011 */ class Asf_Language { public static $lang; public static $phrases = array(); public static $loaded_langs = array(); public function __construct($default) { $this->setLang($default); self::loadFile('common'); } public static function setLang($lang) { self::$lang = $lang; } public static function getLang() { return $lang; } public static function loadFile($file) { $include = dirname(dirname(dirname(__FILE__))).'/languages/'.self::$lang.'/'.$file.'_lang.php'; if(file_exists($include)) { include($include); self::$loaded_langs[] = $file; foreach($l as $key => $val) { self::$phrases[$key] = $val; } } else { echo 'File '.$include.' does not exist'; } return; } public static function getLoadedLanguages() { return implode(', ',self::$loaded_langs); } } Anyone have any ideas why the head is being emptied when this file is being included? I have a function to read terms from an array stored in language file as Code: [Select] function _language($term) { include('fr.php'); if(!empty($lang[$term])) { $lterm=$lang[$term]; } else { $lterm = $term;} return $lterm; } The problem is that I get the language code from url as ?lang=en or ?lang=fr; but I cannot bring this string into the function. How I can tell the function to read appropriate language file (fr.php or en.php or es.php) upon choosing language in ?lang=XX i created a insert php code which successfully submit to database but i was lost at some point because what i really wanted was a php code that will print on the next page after submission to db So far I have managed to create an upload process which uploads a picture, updates the database on file location and then tries to upload the db a 2nd time to update the Thumbnails file location (i tried updating the thumbnails location in one go and for some reason this causes failure) But the main problem is that it doesn't upload some files Here is my upload.php
<?php
include 'dbconnect.php';
$statusMsg = '';
$Title = $conn -> real_escape_string($_POST['Title']) ;
$BodyText = $conn -> real_escape_string($_POST['ThreadBody']) ;
// File upload path
$targetDir = "upload/";
$fileName = basename($_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$targetFilePath = $targetDir . $fileName;
$fileType = pathinfo($targetFilePath,PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
$Thumbnail = "upload/Thumbnails/'$fileName'";
if(isset($_POST["submit"]) && !empty($_FILES["file"]["name"])){
// Allow certain file formats
$allowTypes = array('jpg','png','jpeg','gif','pdf', "webm", "mp4");
if(in_array($fileType, $allowTypes)){
// Upload file to server
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $targetFilePath)){
// Insert image file name into database
$insert = $conn->query("INSERT into Threads (Title, ThreadBody, filename) VALUES ('$Title', '$BodyText', '$fileName')");
if($insert){
$statusMsg = "The file ".$fileName. " has been uploaded successfully.";
$targetFilePathArg = escapeshellarg($targetFilePath);
$output=null;
$retval=null;
//exec("convert $targetFilePathArg -resize 300x200 ./upload/Thumbnails/'$fileName'", $output, $retval);
exec("convert $targetFilePathArg -resize 200x200 $Thumbnail", $output, $retval);
echo "REturned with status $retval and output:\n" ;
if ($retval == null) {
echo "Retval is null\n" ;
echo "Thumbnail equals $Thumbnail\n" ;
}
}else{
$statusMsg = "File upload failed, please try again.";
}
}else{
$statusMsg = "Sorry, there was an error uploading your file.";
}
}else{
$statusMsg = 'Sorry, only JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, mp4, webm & PDF files are allowed to upload.';
}
}else{
$statusMsg = 'Please select a file to upload.';
}
//Update SQL db by setting the thumbnail column to equal $Thumbnail
$update = $conn->query("update Threads set thumbnail = '$Thumbnail' where filename = '$fileName'");
if($update){
$statusMsg = "Updated the thumbnail to sql correctly.";
echo $statusMsg ; }
else
{ echo "\n Failed to update Thumbnail. Thumbnail equals $Thumbnail" ; }
// Display status message
echo $statusMsg;
?>
And this does work on most files however it is not working on a 9.9mb png file which is named "test.png" I tested on another 3.3 mb gif file and that failed too? For some reason it returns the following Updated the thumbnail to sql correctly.Updated the thumbnail to sql correctly. Whereas on the files it works on it returns REturned with status 0 and output: Retval is null Thumbnail equals upload/Thumbnails/'rainbow-trh-stache.gif' Failed to update Thumbnail. Thumbnail equals upload/Thumbnails/'rainbow-trh-stache.gif'The file rainbow-trh-stache.gif has been uploaded successfully. Any idea on why this is? Hello I have a simple question about file handling... Is it possible to list all files in directories / subdirectories, and then read ALL files in those dirs, and put the content of their file into an array? Like this: array: [SomePath/test.php] = "All In this php file is being read by a new smart function!"; [SomePath/Weird/hello.txt = "Hello world. This is me and im just trying to get some help!";and so on, until no further files exists in that rootdir. All my attempts went totally crazy and none of them works... therefore i need to ask you for help. Do you have any ideas how to do this? If so, how can I be able to do it? Thanks in Advance, pros what's the best way to have a website in 2 languages? I already have the website duplicated in the 2nd language but I'm thinking on the best way to do the language change. should I just append variables to the URL when clicking on the flag icon on each page to change to the 2nd language? any other ideas?? I came across usage of ^= in one the password hashing codes and am trying to find what this operator means in PHP. I got site wirch I like tu turn to multilanguage. Code: [Select] <?=$home_jezik?>This is my variable for language code. So I wonna add it to Code: [Select] <?php echo $redak['novost_naslov_hr']; ?>so that "hr" change to "en" or any other language. I try with this but nothing happens Code: [Select] <?php echo $redak['novost_naslov_.$home_jezik']; ?> Hi again PHP Freaks.
So I would like to code something similar to the buy menu of Counter-strike: Global offensive in-game module, just in a browser and for a project of mine. I've made the design in photoshop to illustrate better.
I just don't know what I should look into to make this kind of menu, I would love if someone could explain me what languages that this would require. (I'm guessing HTML, CSS and jQuery but I am not sure) more specific help like which particular codes would be much appreciated.
Here is a picture of what I would like to create. (Also attached)

This is the class I made: Code: [Select] <?php class languages { public function __construct() { if(!isset($_SESSION['language'])) { $_SESSION['language'] = 'nl'; } $lang = isset($_GET['lang']) ? $_GET['lang'] : ""; $languages = array('en', 'nl'); if(in_array($lang, $languages)) { $_SESSION['language'] = $lang; } } } $languages = new languages; $language = $_SESSION['language']; ?> Now as soon I use index.php?lang=en, the website will display it self in English but, as soon I remove the &lang=en from the URI, the language gets not stored in the session and it displays nl agian. Can somebody help me? Thank you! Hi! I want to have a first page on my website where you as visitor can choose the preferred language. No login at all. I want to save this choice in a cookie or something. The easiest way So next time he/she visits, the language choice is already made for he/she. Any good suggestions for a php code that works? I have textfield for signature in my form, I m checking if the signature was sent ( if(!empty($_POST['signature'])) and if it's not empty I m putting it into the db. The problem is that, I have noticed a greek user has entered something in greek letters, and function could not deal with it and saved it as it is.( DB field supports greek charset ) I just want to allow english and german chars with special chars ( ",',< etc. ) , no other charset like greek. How can I do that? any function for this purpose ? are all languages possible to be inserted into database and be retrieved directly?? eg: write down the japanese words in the textbox and INSERT those into table and retrieve it using mysql_fetch_array() Is that as simple as that, or i have to modify certain script...for certain language? thanks Hi, I am trying to append a language session like this: Code: [Select] $ATC_itemWeight = floatval("".$row_productos_RS['capacidad_'.$_SESSION['session_idioma'].'']; but I get this error Code: [Select] Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';' in /usr/home/mysite.com/web/productos_esp.php on line 121 what am I doing wrong? Thanks This topic has been moved to Miscellaneous. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=321347.0 Hi, I have managed to get the code below working with a few tweaks here and there. However, you can see that I have written a small function in the file name local.php to allow the user to select "English" or "German" in the link on the test.php page. This works fine but it will only work on that particular webpage. As soon as I move away from that page the locale will return back to "en_US"(English). Is there a way I could implement lets say an option dropdown and save the locale across the whole site. Just in case its relevant I have a MySQL DB available for use if thats appropriate. local.php <?php function english(){ $directory = dirname(__FILE__).'/locale'; $domain = 'messages'; $locale ="en_UK.utf8"; setlocale( LC_MESSAGES, $locale); bindtextdomain($domain, $directory); textdomain($domain); bind_textdomain_codeset($domain, 'UTF-8'); } function german(){ $directory = dirname(__FILE__).'/locale'; $domain = 'messages'; $locale ="de_DE.utf8"; setlocale( LC_MESSAGES, $locale); bindtextdomain($domain, $directory); textdomain($domain); bind_textdomain_codeset($domain, 'UTF-8'); } //Pagination and normal view switch if (isset($_GET['run'])) $linkchoice=$_GET['run']; else $linkchoice=''; switch($linkchoice){ case 'English' : english(); break; case 'German' : german(); break; default : english(); break; } ?> test.php <?php include("local.php"); ?> <html><head></head> <body> <?php echo "<p><a href='?run=English'>English</a> | <a href='?run=German'>German</a> </p>"; ?> <br /> <?php echo gettext("Welcome to My PHP Application"); echo "<br />"; // Or use the alias _() for gettext() echo _("Have a nice day"); ?> </body> </html> Many thanks in advance! I am developing a multilingual site. I use array to save translations in one file which I include it inside settings.php. Code: [Select] //Example of english $LANG['welcome']="Welcome"; $LANG['status']="Status"; I am wondering about two things: 1. How would be the best option to print those arrays? a) Echo all html and inside html I use Code: [Select] echo " <body> <div> <p>{$LANG['welcome']}</p> </div> ";b) Close php and write html and inside html I open and close php for each time Code: [Select] <div><p><?php echo $LANG['welcome']; ?></p></div> Each one has own downsides. Option a) spends extra resources to print html. Option b) spends extra resources to close and open php each time (could means that single script needs to open and close php even 30 times per script). Is that bad or is the ammount of resources spend for this negligible? 2. Also how do you translate words inside javascript? I was thinking to put all translation that are need for javascript into $LANG['js'] array. Then I would use at the head of the script foreach $LANG['js'] to print html to assign javascript language variables. Code: [Select] <script type="javascript"> <?php foreach($LANG['js'] as $keyword => $translation){ echo "var ".$keyword."= ".$translation.";\n"; } ?> </script>Is there any better way? Thank you! Hello, I will tell you whant I want to do first and what I've done so far and hopefuly someone will be able to help. What I hope for is to have one unique index.php that will work everywhere. I don't mind if I have to modify each and add path where it is located since this won't happen often. It needs to take car of preferred language and if someone land in a directory, I want it to load the index.php there. I also look to not expose hidden URL in the browser URL box. See *note 1 below. My directory structure is as follow: /index.php /about/index.php /blahblah/index.php The current index.php I'm trying to build looks like this: <?php if (preg_match('/^www.(.+)$/i', $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], $matches)) { header("Status: 301 Move permanently", false, 301); header('Location: http://'.$matches[1].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']); exit; } session_start(); $Lang = $_SESSION['lang']; if (!isset($Lang)) { if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'])) { $Lang = explode(",",$_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE']); $Lang = strtolower(substr(chop($Lang[0]),0,2)); if ($Lang !== 'fr' && $Lang !== 'en') { $Lang = "en"; } } else { $Lang = "en"; } $_SESSION['lang'] = $Lang; } include $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . ("/index_" . $_SESSION['lang'] . ".php"); ?> First I remove "www." in the address when applies. Not a must but I like that. Then I check if Language is already set, if not I detect and set it for next pages. I finally load the proper page according to language with an "include" so index_en.php remain secret (sort of). *note 1: all my index_xx.php pages in every directory have this: Code: [Select] <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> if (self == top) top.location.href="directory/index.php"; </script> When in the root, it seems to work and I get the proper page but if I place this in /about/ then when I tried to load /about/index.php it doesn't work. I think the include on the last line could be the problem. I'm either close or far from it, I don't know. Thank you. hello can i open file with name in another language rather than english. For example торта.jpg. How can i open that kind of file. I've tryed that <meta content="text/html" charset="utf-8" /> <?php $fh = fopen("торта.jpg", 'r'); fclose($fh); ?> but it's don't work. Help me pls! |
