[fusion-users] Refreshing panels without refreshing the map

[Paul Deschamps]

Hi Ari,

Currently I believe there is no real way to switch language without
reloading the application. (please correct me if i am incorrect). That being
said you could preserve the extents of the map perhaps in a cookie and have
some logic in your initialize function to read in that to reset the extents
to the last saved extents.

One big thing is that your ApplicationDefinition controls some labeling for
the application. so you would need to have two separate
ApplicationDefinitions one for each language. OR. create a php script that
takes in a querystring parameter and outputs a ApplicationDefinition.xml
with the language substitutions.

Which is something I have done.

Also OpenLayers  has some nice Language Switching functionality  see:
http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.6/doc/apidocs/files/OpenLayers/Lang-js.html

I think perhaps someone should create some documentation on how we have
handled internationalization in fusion. As this is surely something that is
missing out there. hmm who should we get to do this ;)

Cheers

Paul D
