Re: translation of Dropdowns

the question is: why are you not using "true" as second param for __() when you did so correctly in the first place

or even better:

why debugging a completely different - and again translated for a second time - result/output than you actually created yourself?

why not just using the value you just created?

    debug($sL10nValue); // instead of debug(__(...)) which would need to be debug(__(..., true)) but which would make no sense

Hi everybody,

I an using Cakephp 1.3 and just work on translating my site. Things like
field labels work fine. But I also want to translate some dropdown
fields e.g. Country lists or type lists.

So the msgid would come from the database and I want to translate it
with my po/mo files. Since I will need the translation in a lot of
controllers I made a method in the appcontroller which receives an
array, translates the value with the __() method builds from that a new
method and returns this to the calling method.

Nice plan, but it doesn't work. calling the __() method from the
app_controller gives me just empty strings.

Question:
Do I miss a setting here somewhere to be able to use this method in the
app_controller?


Here my method:
 function l10nList($aList) {
  foreach($aList as $sKey => $sValue) {
   debug($sValue);
   $sL10nValue = __($sValue, true);
   debug(__($sL10nValue));
   $aL10nList[$sKey] = $sL10nValue;
  }
  return $aL10nList;
 }

The first debug gives me my value, the second nothing. Why?



Any help appreciated and rewarded with instant good karma  ;)
