Translation

For use with Joomla 1.0.xx and 1.5.xx
Both Available With AltaVista, Yahoo and Google Translations


Updated with more homesite language options. Now available with a few hundred language pairs so most major and many minor markets are covered.

This module connects to the Yahoo,Google and AltaVista translation servers. It places the Yahoo/Google logo and a drop down menu on your page or for AltaVista one or more flags. See it in action at the left side column of this page. Also the module provides facilities for positioning and background colour (in addition to CSS option).


See how it works.

Try out the module, click on the dropdown list of languages in the Yahoo and Google boxes in the left-hand column of this site. I have provided some links so you may see the effect of translation in different web layouts.


Comments and Limitations

If you have any comments I have provided a page for this on the top menu or an email contact at the bottom of the page. However please do remember that the translations are provided by machine, that sometimes that they may appear to be a bit clumsy and occasionaly absurd. If you are aiming your web content at an international audience using this type of service it is best to keep to short simple sentence structures.


The Choice is Yours

The module works by giving a choice of using either Yahoo/AltaVista Babelfish or Google Translate. Some sites work better with one some with the the other.

Freeware, no restrictions on implementation of module. See altavista.com, yahoo.com and google.com for any restrictions on use of translation services.
