I have found an open source PHP script that uses a select menu to choose the language.
In the code session makes use of a loop to fill in the select menu, as above...
$la = 0;
foreach($trans['languages'] as $short=>$langname) {
$params['LANGSEL'][$la]['LANG_SHORT'] = $short;
$params['LANGSEL'][$la]['LANG_LONG'] = $langname;
$la++;
}
In the php template creates the select menu like that...
<td><select class="select" name="lang"><#FOR LANGSEL#>
<option value="<#LANG_SHORT#>"><#LANG_LONG#></option>
<#/FOR LANGSEL#></select></td>
So this code works fine but i find it kinda ugly so i am trying to make an image input instead So i thought something like that would work..
<input type="image" name="lang" value="http://localhost/index.php?lang=en" src=" <#IMAGES_DIRECTORY#>/english.png"></td>
<input type="image" name="lang" value="http://localhost/index.php?lang=it" src=" <#IMAGES_DIRECTORY#>/italian.png"></td>
But nothing changes, the page always shows up in italian that is the default language.. Thanks in advance from a newbie that is struggling to learn some html and php.
