Not quite... if I interpret that issue correctly that issue says 'If we link to an untranslated page the link-text also becomes untranslated, it should be possible to have a localized link-text to link to an untranslated page'. (Such an untranslated My issue is that when I am on a translated page and a translated page for a link-target exists, but my browser preferred language is set to English I get redirected to the English page. The issue you point to makes me believe that, at least for the Dutch translations, there is indeed an error: namelijk not including the -nl suffix on macro calls for links to already translated pages.Hello, On 1 February 2012 20:06, Hans Aikema<address@hidden> wrote:When explicitly browsing to a specific-language version of the userguides the internal links link to the 'browser preferred language' version of the Userguide rather than the currently displayed version E.g. when browsing to http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/learning/index.nl.html with an 'accepted languages most significant preference for English' language settings in the browser the displayed page is in Dutch, but all followed links lead to the English version of the documentation. One would expect that if a given page is in Dutch and the link-texts are in Dutch than the linked pages will also appear in Dutch. Allthough only a minor issue (can be resolved by modifying a browser's preferred language sequence), it's still quite an annoyance when one surfs by default using English (because of the many poorly translated sites one wants to avoid) but with a google search arrives at the Dutch documentation pages to then be presented only links for English-language versions of the Documentation pages.http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1441 I think this is the tracker for this -- James .
For example: On http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/learning/index.nl.html there is a link '1. Leerboek' in the table of contents pointing to http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/learning/tutorial which with a browser-preferred language of English leads the webserver to serve up http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/learning/tutorial.html allthough there IS a localized Dutch page for this link-target: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/learning/tutorial.nl.html The webserver is doing it's job in serving up the 'preferred language'-version of the requested source, but being explicitly on the Dutch-language version of the Documentation I would expect the links to make my browser explicitly request the Dutch-language version of the resource whenever available.
