[Seaside] Soup

[Cédrick Béler]

Hi,

Lukas solution is far more better. But Soup should work too. Did you pass
the string to translate because
http://translate.google.com/#en|fr|<http://translate.google.com/#en%7Cca%7C>
is
the default url and translation is done by "ajax" on the fly. Otherwise, the
string to translate is encodeed at the end of the url.

For instance, try with
http://translate.google.com/#en|f<http://translate.google.com/#en%7Cca%7C>
r|a%20string%20to%20translate ?

hth,

Cédrick

you can also search for span whose title are each line you want to
translate.
