Multilingual support in ColdFusion

[Abdul L Koyappayil]

In my application I am using a form which contains around 70 fields , all are in english language.And there is a drop down in the top right corner of the browser which contains a list of around 30 languages like chineese , japanese , russian etc etc.When I select a language from this drop down my application should convert all the english text to the selected language.

Any one have any idea about this , I mean any good approach.

You probably want to use a Resource Bundle, this is the most common way to do internationalisation.  e.g. see

http://java.dzone.com/articles/resource-bundle-tricks-and  (this is for Java, but the same approach applies to CF).

But its seems entire java code... couldnt rectify an approach needed to implement............ Or can you just point it out where it is using any kind of general approach in this article.

Thanks

If you google coldfusion + resource bundle, you'll turn up plenty of articles about how to do this.
