<HTML><BODY style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; "><DIV><DIV>Hi,</DIV><BR><DIV>I had a question about internationalization (using Locale::Maketext::Simple) that I hoped someone would be able to answer. Here's the situation:</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV>I created a drop-down menu on the user preferences form that allows users to select a language. When the user clicks submit, his preference is changed in our database and in the URL string (<A href="http://www.turnitin.com/user_info.asp?lang=en_us&">www.turnitin.com/user_info.asp?lang=en_us&</A>..., or 'fr', 'es', etc.) . When the page reloads, there is a call to loc_lang that should cause all of the text to be displayed in the new language. However, the text still shows up in the old language, so it looks like loc_lang isn't working. For example, if the user logged in with his language preference set as en_us and then changed it to fr, the 'Welcome' text remains 'Welcome' and doesn't change to the French version. I logged our calls to loc_lang and found that it is indeed calling loc_lang("fr"), but the text that is displayed is still all English. <DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>The only time I can get the text to change is if I restart apache and then reload the page. Would anyone happen to know whether we're missing a step in here or what we can do to have loc_lang change the current language? If you could respond to <A href="mailto:achen@iparadigms.com">achen@iparadigms.com</A>, that would be much appreciated!</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Thanks,</DIV><DIV>Allen<BR><BR><DIV> <SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><DIV>Allen Chen</DIV><DIV>Web Application Support & Developer</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>iParadigms, LLC</DIV><DIV>1624 Franklin Street, 7th Floor</DIV><DIV>Oakland, CA 94612</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>p +1.510.287.9720 x 256</DIV><DIV>f +1.510.444.1952</DIV><DIV>e <A href="mailto:achen@iparadigms.com">achen@iparadigms.com</A></DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"></SPAN><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" color="#FF0000"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); ">The information contained in this message may be privileged and confidential and protected from disclosure.
