Changing language on the fly - El Forum - 12-21-2007

[eluser]PoWah[/eluser]
I have autoloaded one language file in autoload.php:
Code:
$autoload['language'] = array('application');

There are in this file common constants that I need in my application permanently.
How I can change language on the fly? Tried
Code:
$this->config->set_item('language', 'nl');
but it didn't work :/ CI still outputs default language lines

If you reload the language file specifying a new language at run time (rather than in autoload) it will overwrite the current language elements.

Language Class

so try
Code:
$this->lang->load('application', 'nl');
