In the note below Chaals raises the topic of automatic language detection. I wonder if some things could be made easier for authors by having tools Someday this may be good enough that it would be unnecessary for authors to do it because standard clients could do it (and translate as necessary using network services. Or locally for that matter). Gregg -- ------------------------------ Gregg C Vanderheiden Ph.D. Professor - Ind. Engr. & BioMed Engr. Director - Trace R & D Center University of Wisconsin-Madison -----Original Message----- There is at least one example I know of for automatic language switching - the Technical University of Tampere http://www.tut.fi produced a voice-based email system that auto-detects languages and switches synthesiser accordingly. Having one that could read XML to the simplistic level of being able to spot the xml:lang attribute in an element would be good. cheers chaals -- Charles McCathieNevile charles@sidar.org Fundación SIDAR http://www.sidar.org
