Hello Dirk,
Thank you for your help and definition on changing the Geeklog
language.
>I'm still looking for a good list that has all the locales <snip>
I've managed to find a really extensive list of locales through IE6.
Not sure how much help it would be as it definitely seems to be
*over-extensive*.
i.e. Geeklog accepts the English locale as to be "en-gb". Yet the
over-extensive list IE6 has, is over 12 locales for English alone :|
i.e. I am certain you're 100% about German my friend but again IE6
shows an over-extensive list of 5 locales including...
de-at, de, de-li, de-lu, de-ch...
And, believe it or not it excludes "de-DE". Weird...
Outside of English and German which these two I feel I have a grip
on, how do I decide which locale is right for i.e. French...
The current list under IE6 for French is...
fr-be, fr-ca, fr, fr-lu, fr-mc, fr-ch
Ok, not trying to school anyone but myself here :) How do I go about
picking the right locale for another language now that I know how to
change the language "language file exclude .php"?
I mean is it trial and error or would choosing the simple "fr" be
any good? for example...
French, "fr" OR "fr-fr"
Dutch, "nl" OR "nl-nl"
Nepali, "ne" OR "ne-ne"
Is the above safe or will I always have to complete the locale to
something more specific to get it right?
If in case the locale always has to be specific, is it possible to
get the language interpreters to identify the specificity within the
comments of the language file?
I mean this would be good for others who do not wish to change the
language for themselves but for others. Unless this is documented
already I would surely appreciate the link :)
Sorry for the long letter. My point is getting the locale right to
languages in which their are so many locales.
Thank you Dirk :)
