Hi Dave,

I'm sorry that the .htaccess thing was not the problem...if you follow my drift...

I to, am getting the same errors as you and would dearly like to get this sorted. Patience is a virtue, so they say. Guess that will have to do for now.

hi
i have the same problem.
when i translate into another language en ==>fr or de ,.... this problem occured.
I think the problem its in parametrs of the script, because :

1- We are experiencing a temporary problem with the foreign language section. Please try again later. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Scuzi / Perdon / Pardon / Das is Nicht Gud / Sori / Nay canne doo tha laddy


Code: -2 (LANG2: Translator returned status '302' (req=http://translate.google.com/translate_c?hl=en&langpair=en%7Cweb02host&u=http://www.web02host.co.cc/gen3ptc/))

when i try it in the browser it's good.

hi

//Define translation engines here
$engines = array(
'g' => array( 'trans_url' => 'http://translate.google.com/translate_c?hl=en&langpair=en%7C$lang&u=$url',
'timeout' => 180,
'max_redir' => 3,
'check_func' => 'GoogleCheck', //This function should determine if the translation was successful
'fixup_func' => 'GoogleFixup'

see the red item above :
it's inccorect because hl receive the home language = fr,de,...or arabic.
when you correct this the script it's good.

I thought this forum was for support.

Now I have decided to keep it simple and follow the instructions to the T.

Oh yes, this script is a hack -- it's doing something Google doesn't want done. As a result, it is difficult enough to make work under the best of circumstances. It's highly recommended to get it working as designed before trying new things.

I wish someone would step into that role!

Unfortunately, this script is (necessarily) very complex. No one seems to want to deal with that level of pain.

I apologize. I am the main support guy and my recent move from Denver to Singapore has put all of my projects behind schedule.

Worst, my server was banned by the translation engines -- so I could not accomplish useful testing.

Coming back, I see that Google has changed the format of the URL's used by Google Translate. All of the scripts which integrate with Google Translate are being forced to release new versions.

I've escalated this issue to our contract coder and he's going to send me a report later today or possibly tomorrow.

Thanks for the reply Will.

That's all I needed to know, I don't need hand holding, afterall this is a free script. Just wanted to know what the error codes mean and by the sounds of it - it's the script, not me.

Please keep us updated, thanks.

Just echoing what Dave S said. Thanks for the support Will, hope the move to SP is going OK?

Look forward to using this script when the dust has settled...

hello
waiting correction!!!

Me too.

Revision 2.16 of the Translation Script is now available for download.
