how to seperate links of two languages
Hello again,

I am making a Dutch directory in which I also want to place links to sites that aren't Dutch. English most of all. I do feel that it has to be clear to visitors of my directory that a link to a site is Dutch or not, for instance by adding a little flague to Dutch sites. Or to put Dutch sites on top of the list and everything else below.

Since I have no idea how to deal with this I would like to ask you: what are my options? And how can it be done?

Thanks in advance,

Rik.

Try adding a new field (in links.def)...something like WhatLang, then have options of 'eng' and 'dutch'. Then, in link.html, try something like;

<%if WhatLang eq 'eng'%>
<img src="location to english flag">
<%endif%>
<%if WhatLang eq 'dutch'%>
<img src="location to dutch flag">
<%endif%>

For more information on adding fields, try searching this forum for adding fields

Hope that helps Tongue

Discussed before in the Customization forum, search for language flags.
