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 ... } (of course you fill the places where I wrote the ... :-) Ah and lets hope your graphic does not contain text - otherwise the fileformat jpg is sure inappropriate.
