The GeoGebra Google GadGet Translation...

Needs Answer

Dear Friends,


I know that here it's not a english forum, but I need some help...


I'm working in a 'full' version of GeoGebra Google Gadget, so we can put our .ggb files in Google-Sites without writing any .xml file. Now, you can have it from:

http://www.google.com/ig/di...


I need help to translate it to another languages. All you have to do is edit the text between "<msg>" and "</msg>" in the file "ALL_ALL.xml" below, and save it as "<language>_<country>.xml", where "<language>" and "<country>" usually have two letters (see [1] and [2]). For example, your language is english and your country is UK, so we have "en_UK.xml". For portuguese and Brazil, we have "pt_BR.xml". And so on. If there isn't another country officially speaking your language, so we have "<language>_ALL.xml".


"ALL_ALL.xml" file:

Before you edit this file, we have two simple rules:

  • The file must be saved in UTF-8 format.
  • You can't use the character: &, <, > or " in your text. If you want to use them, so use the follow escape code:

    • & : &
    • < : <
    • > : >
    • " : "

    For example, you want to put a link for Java site in the case that the applet can't be started. So do this:

    <a href='http://java.sun.com/getjava'>Click here to install Java now <\a>

    and we'll have this

    <a href='http://java.sun.com/getjava'>Click here to install Java now<\a>


When you finish the edition, send me the file. My e-mail address is aquino.luizclaudio@gmail.com.


One more thing, from "enableRightClick" to "showAlgebraInput", we can find the translation in GeoGebra menu: File > Export Dynamic Worksheet > Advanced tab.
