Multilanguage possible on textboxes or buttons?

Yep. But there are ways to handle that..

Also Just had a thought that you can use the anchor hash in a link for language selection.

First Example is a stripped version of the version above ( Buttons & storage stripped )

If you enter the normal url you will get the first scene as normal. But if you use:
../langTest2.html#es

or

../langTest2.html#en

You will get the language chosen. This still uses the global variables that represent the language text for each element.

We just get the window.hash to get the anchor and use that to pick the language. ( in Head )

Since we still have a single scene we can just run the other javascript functions in the normal way using the inspector.

You can also use the same method if you want to have multiple language scenes .

Since we have a multiple scenes we run the other javascript functions from the head.

<script type="text/javascript"> 
 window.langChosen = window.location.hash.substring(1); 
 
	
	function sceneTitleCallback(hypeDocument, element, event) {
console.log( "call");
 hypeDocument.functions().lang(hypeDocument);
 
}

if("HYPE_eventListeners" in window === false) {
window.HYPE_eventListeners = Array();
}
window.HYPE_eventListeners.push({"type":"HypeDocumentLoad", "callback":sceneTitleCallback});

 
</script>

The lang() function will then load the correct scene corresponding with window.langChosen

Note: Initially thought of this and wrote my code but then did a search on the forum for hash to see if it had been discussed before. It had in @Daniel 's excellent thread where I nicked the .substring(1); bit :smile:
