hi list
i started working on a translation-system for those ugly language
files. feel free to join this project.
files are located at http://globulation2.org/translation/
My ideas and concept so far:
I plan to make this translation-file helper with AJAX.
* to be able to do changes on a word by word basis i put the data into
the database. that's done by files2db.php.
* the way back will be done by db2files.php.
* the index.php will show up something like
key alreadyOpenedTranslation <dropdown for language />
key alreadyOpenedTranslation
key alreadyOpenedTranslation
key alreadyOpenedTranslation
... ...
<input for a new key />
* by entering data to the input the input turns into text and a new
input appears below.
* by choosing a language (existing or new) all translations in that
language for the keys get listed as text.
* non existing translations get marked by red background
* doubleclicking text makes it turn into an <input> allowing to change
the value.
benefits:
* we get an overview of what translation is how complete
* people can contribute far easier
* if finished it makes translation less error-prone
further ideas:
* add meta data like width of the text, context or even screenshot
state:
data-retrieval from files is done
data-structure in the db is done
keys and languages can be transfaired to db
translations can not yet be transfered to db
utf8 displays correctly (i had trouble with that for inputs)
a "hello ajax-world" aplication is in place.
Greetings, Leo
