Hello Christian and others,

thx

I just quit using the the Poor man's multilanguage enhancement v2.0.
I was told the script is a non-dom script which *completely* rewrites the html,
therefor scraping any dom compliant and non-invasive additions to the html.
It would not be compatible with *any* dom compliant code.
This way, it is *not* compatible with any other script that works
unobrtusively without inline code. (inline scripts still work because they are re-written.)
I myself had also troubles with the script and Opera (it didn't work)
and I couldn't use any other scripts, for instance Lightbox.
Now I go find an other solution for on-the-fly language switching.
So if anyone has a suggestion, your welkom!!!

So it seems that there is no solution :shock: which is a pitty in my opinion, because I liked this hack due to its simplicity in use ({DE}...{/DE}{EN}...{/EN} Replacementtags).

I also read flip-flops solution and - whilst I usually really appreciate his methods - this one I dont like so much, because in my case I would need to triple my site-structure - not very viable!

There is another - css-driven- way of switching languages existing (works with RT as well) but this solution messed with my css, which was the reason why I gave up on this one.

Thanks to you all for your contributions to this thread!

many greetings
christian
