Why not just copy the HTML document and translate it to another languages and just make a link saying "English" or any other language

[phpacademy]

Because this doesn't work for dynamic content very well. This is much more organised and in the long run, easier to translate pages as the language files are seperate

[Ghotherkill]

Instead of using a separate file for every language, you could set up an advanced array system and just call out that variable. Very simple and more effective.

[phpacademy]

I'd class this as a beginner tutorial. Many many systems use this type of language selection which is why I chose to make it. By saying 'advanced array' you're already going into...advanced arrays!

[superawesomesuperkid]

Use google translate and translate your code for each page your done.

[phpacademy]

This won't work very well for dynamic content. You get much more control this way.

he uses XAMPP, which allows your computer to become a webserver, if you like.
