How to localize this global string?

Hi,

I am localizing one wordpress theme. In the admin section of this theme there is an option to choose between 4 color schemes. I would like to localize these color schemes. What I did was

- I have created a global string in appropriate php file
$color_options = array('Default','Blue','Green','Red');

- I have used this string as follow:

array( "name" => "Color Scheme",
"id" => $shortname."_color_scheme",
"type" => "select",
"std" => "Default",
"desc" => "",
"options" => $color_options),

Is there a way how to localize those 4 color scheme options in $color_options? Every color scheme has its own css (blue.css, red.css and so on). Other web site parts which are ready to localize via CodeStyling Localization plugin use this: $themename

Obviously I am quite new in PHP things maybe I am doing this completely wrong so I would appreciate any help.

Thanks

 

"options" => array("Red", "Green", "Blue")),

 

Thanks Erik, but the thing is I would like to localize words "Red", "Green, "Blue" and if I would just translate the words the functionality will stop working as it is linked to red.css, green.css, blue.css. I tried to rename also the css files, but it did not help that much as there are probably some other references to red, green and blue in the code.

So I was thinking whether I could use "esc_html__" in this code so I would be able to translate it via gettext translation files (*.po/*.mo). Or maybe a similar code.

Do you have any idea?

 

Use a switch statement to set the value of the CSS file based both on the language and the color.
