Multiple Languages

Is there any way to have my website established with internationalization. Does FP 2002 have multi language support?

Thanks

I'm not quite sure what you are looking for...We have created sites where the text content is stored in databases...click a link for a language and that text is pulled from the database and displayed for the user.

Or, you may be thinking about LCID's or "Locale ID's"?

This is how you can set the LCID for a country and the formatting would be re-set for that country (like date formats). The LCID's can be implemented in many ways:
<%=Session.LCID = 1061%> user by user basis
<%@LCID=1037%> page by page basis
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" LCID=1037%> multiple directive basis

Is this what you were looking for?

Hey thanks for the help TWD!

But I'm sad to say I don't know if that will do it for me. Maybe to rephrase my question...Is there a way using FP 2002 to make my website appear in the various native languages / countries that it is being viewed from? I'm using windows XP and my website is in English. I would primarily like to have my website translated into view in all European countries and asia

The Google toolbar has a translate option that lets you translate a page between two different languages. I have a Japanese friend that I was showing it to. She says that while it does translate it word for word, sometimes you loose the context of the whole sentence.

This might be a step in the right direction though.
