How data translators work
handles all translator files the same way, regardless of whether
they translate entire tags or only attributes. At startup, reads
all the files in the Configuration/Translators folder and calls the getTranslatorInfo()
function to obtain information about the translator. ignores any
file in which getTranslatorInfo() does not exist or contains an error that causes
it to be undefined.
Note: To prevent JavaScript errors from interfering with startup, errors in any translator file are reported only after all translators are loaded. For more information on debugging translators, see Finding bugs in your translator.
also calls the translateMarkup() function in all applicable translator files (as specified in the Translation preferences) whenever the user might have added new or changed existing content that needs translation. calls translateMarkup() when the user performs one of the following actions:
Opens a file in
Switches back to Design view after making changes in the HTML panel or in Code
view
Changes the properties of an object in the current document
Inserts an object (using either the Objects panel or the Insert menu)
Refreshes the current document after making changes to it in another application
Applies a template to the document
Pastes or drags content into or within the Document window
Saves changes to a dependent file
Invokes a command, behavior, server behavior, Property inspector, or other extension
that sets the innerHTML or outerHTML property of any tag object or the data
property of any comment object
