This class provides an easy way to retrieve all the strings for a multilingual site from a data source (i.e. db). The following containers are provided, more will follow: - PEAR::DB - PEAR::MDB - PEAR::MDB2 - gettext - XML - PEAR::DB_DataObject (experimental) It is designed to reduce the number of queries to the db, caching the results when possible. An Admin class is provided to easily manage translations (add/remove a language, add/remove a string). Currently, the following decorators are provided: - CacheLiteFunction (for file-based caching) - CacheMemory (for memory-based caching) - DefaultText (to replace empty strings with their keys) - Iconv (to switch from/to different encodings) - Lang (resort to fallback languages for empty strings) - SpecialChars (replace html entities with their hex codes) - UTF-8 (to convert UTF-8 strings to ISO-8859-1) WWW: http://pear.php.net/package/Translation2/
