    This site:

    http://www.shvoong.com/books/97-software-project-survival-guide/

    Has the ability to click a button or select and language and it converts it. Couple questions...

    1. Anyone know how I can do this or a service that does this? But on your site like this, not in a frame through another site.
    2. Do the search engines index all the languages? I don't see why the wouldn't.

    I could see how this kind of tool could really help a large content site with adsense revenue... your now talking ONE content page now turns into TEN pages of revenue.

    Let me also add to this I know that most, if not all of these translation tools do a really bad job. None the less I'm still interested if anyone knows of one.

    Goggle translates in a frame, not on your site.

    Interlogic posted a nice little translation script which I am using at the moment on my site. I am very pleased with it and I am getting different searches in different languages showing up on my logs, so I know that google is indexing the different language version of the pages.

    You can find the post here:

    Once again, thanks alot Interlogic, the script has been very useful.

    Oh, one more thing, my website is sandboxed at the moment but I read somewhere that google finds it harder to sandbox sites which are not in english, so I am hoping that this script is helping my site to get more traffic.
