Re: translated faq.html into Japanese.

Hi lists,

I'm sorry, but I could not have time to spend for Subversion
just for my personal matters.

I'd like to put a link to faq-ja.html within index.html.  As
Jens suggested(thank you very much!), tigirs sever tries to
send us correct 'faq' file, which is based on our browser's
proffered language setting.

Of course, tigris server sends us original English page if
we don't specify any language settings or there is no faq
page which matches our language settings, so there is no any
undesirable effect for other people.  Also, the file name of
original English page remains 'faql.html', so there is no
problem if someone try to fetch this page with direct link.

For these reasons, I'd like to change the 'faq' link which
is in index.html to 'faq' from 'faq.html'.

If there is no problem, I'll modify this file or I'm very
happy if you suggest me any idea.

Thank you for your kindness!

Could write up that bug report and send it to feedback@tigris.org?  (I
don't understand the language-selection mechanism well enough to write
the report properly, I think.)

In the meantime, a good solution is just to add explicit links, which I
will do.  Nobuyoshi, is "日文" good text for a link to a Japanese
version of a document?  In other words, I'd like to put

   "(日文)"

...next to the link to the FAQ on the front page, and also put it on the
FAQ itself; both will link to faq.ja.html.  Then on faq.ja.html, I'll
put a link saying "(English)" to the English version.

It's still reproducable be manual selecting either
http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html
or
http://subversion.tigris.org/faq
Good ...

Could it be related to JavaScript usage in this file?

I thing a proper solution is to analyse the problem, to fix it and
later revert to using "faq" without ".html". This is probably a
common problem for all tigris projects so should we open a bug report
on the site itself or has anyone a idea what is happening?

Hi Karl,

Thank you for your comments.  And I'm sorry for passing over
your very important suggestion(and for my late response...).

I reverted index.html to original one for keeping good
navigation assistance, as you suggested me.

I had two choices to add a link to faq.ja.html.  One is to
create two language links of FAQ separately, such as:

    FAQ (answers to Frequently Asked Questions): (in
    English/in Japanese)

and another is to rely on preferred-language selecting
system of Web server.

The former one is loosing current cool layout, and because
the many people prefer to select 'in English' link, it looks
wordy for me and I selected later one.  But loosing
navigation assistance is completely not my intention.  Sorry
for your inconvenience.

My only desire is to add a link to Japanese FAQ page near
English one, and other language translators can follow this
scheme.  So I'm willing to hear any suggestions about it and
to obey to list's consensus(of course!).

Best Regards,
