Here is a patch for the [[plugins/meta]] plugin. It adds the possibility to define the language used for a page, with [[meta lang="ja"]] It doesn't insert the langage information in the xhtml meta elements, but defines a LANG variable to use in the templates, for example with fr" xml:lang="fr"> This way also allows to define a language for a subset of the final page, with custom templates and inclusion. This may be useful for sites with a few pages in different languages, but no full i18n. > Looks good, but the need to modify the template and include a default > language in it is a bit problimatic, I think. --[[Joey]]
