Converting the personal website in a multi-language site poses four distinct problems:

• Page Text,
• Database Structure regarding items such as albums and media, which must be modified to handle album names and media names and keywords in more than one language,
• “Loose Phrases” (such as: “Viewed x times” for a photo),
• Image Buttons with text such as: , which are language specific.

Regarding page text, the solution followed consists in storing all structured text (as opposed to loose phrases) in the database: Each page can have eight header fields and text nine fields which are displayed by “DataList” sections. To populate the pages, a Contents management page has been added to the Admin sections. These pages use the "FCKeditor" server control to format the text properly.
