Naples Trip, Day 3
Tuesday, October 30, 2007, 5:20 PM
Today we had more meetins. This evening, though, the team went out to dinner at The Dock, so that was nice. Got to talk with my friends a little more than just 'work this, work that.'
Humm, tonight. I'll probably do some more development on a research project I'm working on. It has to do with serving one set of web pages for multiple languages, but with different paths in the URL.
Example:
http://www.elijahtaylor.com/en-US/default.asp
would translate (internally) to:
http://www.elijahtaylor.com/default.asp?locale=en-US
I think it's doable. What it would allow is physical dissemination of multiple languages (for purposes of advertising and multi-language search engine optimization), but with only ONE set of physical files to handle the requests.
Of course all the language logic would also have to permeate all of the page content, but that's easy compared to dynamically supporting multiple languages with just ONE set of files (that appear to have different physical addresses).
We'll see.
