Localization

Woof! provides some facilities for delivering Web pages in multiple languages. Applications can make decisions on content language based on the preferences expressed by the client in its request. Content language can be changed either within a page section or entire page sections can selected based on the language.

For simpler pages, such as display of a standard form, it is sufficient to define a page section and then generate content using a message catalog or a database.

In cases where the static content is complex, entire page section templates can be created in language-dependent fashion.

Naturally, these mechanisms can be used in combination.
