PHPRunner General questions

I am preparing a multilingual application, and taking full advantage of tools provided in PHPRunner (5.1).

What is the preferred method to make multiple languages available of field data (not field names or labels)?
Is it to have multiple data records for different languages, or a single record of a tag used in conjunction with language dictionary lookup, as used by PHPRunner for page for names, labels, messages. etc.
Thanks,

Jack

Jack,
here are some tips:

  1. add field for each language in your database. Here is a sample:

ID

FieldName1_english

FieldName1_french

FieldName2_english

FieldName2_french

...



2. then create separate application for each language.

3. add links to another applications manually on the Visual Editor tab.
