2.8 Multiple Languages
There are three areas that have language specific files. Each language is identified by a 2 character
abbreviation, which is used for language subdirectory name, for image file names, and in receipt.html file
names. For instance; en for English, sv for Swedish, etc.
1. Each language should have its own set of button images, which are all kept in the images
directory. The language for button images is identified by the 2 character suffix. For instance, buy-
en.gif is the name of a buy button image that is used for English language.
2. Each language should have its own set of templates. The templates are located in the
templates directory or in a subdirectory of themes. Each of them can be made language specific by
adding the two letter language abbreviation to the filename, like this: cart-sp.html which would be
the Spanish language template for the view cart page. The message and receipt templates can be
made language specific this way too.
