hi,

I have a site developed with CSS.  We just translated the site to
German.  The problem I have is with some embedded graphics.  For
example:
#rightcolumn h1 {
	background: transparent url("i/news_title.jpg") no-repeat top left;
	height: 38px;
	width: 180px;
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
}

This is the English graphic.  If people are in the German side, I need
news_title_de.jpg.  But I'm not sure how to deal with this without
doing a separate CSS file.


You set some flag for example <body class="de"> ... 
or <body lang="de> ... 

Next you first set a default:

#rightcolumn h1 { background: transparent url("i/news_title.jpg") ... }

Now for each language you just overwrite the specifics:

for body class you write:

body.de #rightcolumn h1 { ...i/news_title_de.jpg ... }

for body lang you write:

body[lang=de] #rightcolumn h1 { ...i/news_title_de.jpg  ... }

Tito,

Thats the first example of that logic I've seen Mixing CSS parent-child dependencies and something like:
<body tal:attributes lang="request/language | nothing">

When body lang="de" then

body.de #rightcolumn h1 { ...i/news_title_de.jpg ... }

Kicks in.

I like it!
