Multilingual set up of codeigniter

问题:

I'm using this tutorial http://sumonbd.wordpress.com/2009/09/16/develop-multilingual-site-using-codeigniter-i18n-library/ for multilingual in codeigniter.

I've follow the instruction listed correctly. It does not gave me any error, but I couldn't say that it is working properly. when I run through mysite.com/en/about and mysite.com/fr/about it always give me the default language which is english. I'm wondering if there is any configuration that I need to set to be able to work properly.

I'm thinking about this in config.php

$config['language']

and

this in autoload.php

$autoload['language']

Do I have to configure those? or any other configuration to work the multilingual properly.

After analyzing the code of CI and the codes in the blog I've come up to this solution.

<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class About extends CI_Controller {

    function index()
    {
        // you might want to just autoload these two helpers
        $this->load->helper('language');
        $this->load->helper('url');

    $this->getLang();
        $this->load->view('about');
    }

    function getLang(){
        $url =  $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
        $lang = explode("/", $url);

        if($lang[2] == 'en'){
        // load language file
            return $loadLang = $this->lang->load('english','english');
        }
        else if($lang[2] == 'fr'){
        // load language file
            return $loadLang = $this->lang->load('french','french');
        }
        else{
            // load language file
            return $loadLang = $this->lang->load('english','english');
        }

        return false;
    }


}

I've created the function getLang() in which I load the language file.

$this->lang->load('language_file','language_folder');

Sorry, you don't provide enough information about what you have done. But I'll try to answer.

I've try the updated tutorial, and it's works like a charm.

First, you point to an out to date tutorial. This is the source of your link with an update: source

Second, a file prefixed with MY_ (default configuration) is a core classes ( see Core Classes ) not a library and should be placed on application/core directory.

Third, in your view file, try to avoid using php short tag (<?=$variabel;?>) because not all server configuration enable php short tag. Use normal echo tag instead <?php echo $var; ?>. Longer, but worth it as you write the standard pattern.

As I said before, if you follow the updated tutorial your script should work as mine. I hope this help. Sorry for my English, correct me if I'm wrong.

i think you should have a look at URI-Language-Identifier i use it for my multilingual projects, and its working as it should.
