## Detailed Description

translation support

This file contains functions to work with translations and other language related tasks.

## Function Documentation

detect_language | ( |  | $s | ) |

Takes a string and tries to identify the language.

It uses the pear library Text_LanguageDetect and it can identify 52 human languages. It returns the identified languges and a confidence score for each.

Strings need to have a min length config['system']['language_detect_min_length'] and you can influence the confidence that must be met before a result will get returned through config['system']['language_detect_min_confidence'].

  s | A string to examine

get_best_language | ( |  | ) |

Returns the best language for which also a translation exists.

This function takes the results from get_browser_language() and compares it with the available translations and returns the best fitting language for which there exists a translation.

get_browser_language | ( |  | ) |

Get the browser's submitted preferred languages.

This functions parses the HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE header sent by the browser and extracts the preferred languages and their priority.

If possible, we use the value from the browser.

get_language_name | ( |  | $s,
|  |  | $l = `null`
| ) |  |

Returns the display name of a given language code.

By default we use the localized language name. You can switch the result to any language with the optional 2nd parameter $l.

$s and $l can be in any format that PHP's Locale understands. We will mostly use the 2-letter ISO 639-1 (en, de, fr) format.

If nothing could be looked up it returns $s.

Parameters

  $s | Language code to look up
