[SOLVED]Google Website Translator gadget.

[burlington]

Running CMSMS 1.9.4.2 "Faanui".

I have tried to put this 'tool' on the site either in straight code or as a GCB with or without {literal} tags and I can't get the tool to show at all.

The code for the tool is:
<quote>

<div id="google_translate_element"></div><__script__>
function googleTranslateElementInit() {
new google.translate.TranslateElement({
pageLanguage: 'en'
}, 'google_translate_element');
}
</__script><__script__ src="//translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit"></__script>

</quote>

Can anyone help please?

Thanks

Martin

did you try yet to have the google script-call before the code?
Or put it into the head of yout template....

Thanks Lucy

I think you will have to explain this as I am not very good at all with scripts.

Hi,

I'm still working at the next release (1.5) of socialBookmarking plugin, and the google translator tool will be included in it.
Take a look at my site http://www.weichbrodt.it for testing a preview application for this great google's tool.
Stay tuned in the forge for the next release of the plugin: http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/socialbks.

I was able to get it to work. Here's what I did.

I pasted the following code:

Code: Select all

<div id="google_translate_element"></div>
{literal}
<__script__>
function googleTranslateElementInit() {
new google.translate.TranslateElement({
pageLanguage: 'en'
}, 'google_translate_element');
}
{/literal}
</__script><__script__ src="//translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit"></__script>

within the </__body> of the page and was able to see the translation controls and translate the content on the page.

Hope that helps.
