If you have to have text here and text there (like for menus, for example) use classes instead of IDs.

Then just use a simple javascript switch to hide one and display the other using display block and display none. Same basic concept as a stylesheet switcher.

Then go one step further and save the preference to a cookie, and load the appropriate stylesheet dependent on the cookie value.

The trick is getting the japanese characters to display, and working past text direction issues, but I'm assuming you've already sorted those out.]]> 03/31/05, 090 02 2005 2005:%i:1112295722 14:02:02 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/browser__user_chooses_display_language/#p1856 Bradanderson said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/browser__user_chooses_display_language/#p1857 You said javascript would be able to do that. Unfortunately, I am not very good at JS. Could you point me to a link or article on how to do this? I imagine it's difficult to make this?

In your case, you probably want one that stores the preference as a cookie or something.

Your document will have two divs, say "en" and "jp" with the appropriate language in each one. Your 'en' stylesheet will display:none on the 'jp' div and vice versa.

Besides stylesheets, you could also take a look at how sitepoints expanding/collapsing sidebar works... basically the same concept.]]> 04/14/05, 104 52 2005 2005:%i:1113497555 12:52:35 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/browser__user_chooses_display_language/#p1858
