hi all,

i'm wondering how to switch language in my site...

I've some different language packs in my /language directory.

this is the scheme:

Code:

-language
    -en
    ----en_lang.php
    -pt
    ----pt_lang.php
    -sp
    ----sp_lang.php

now i would like to switch the default language into config.php ($config['language'])
by a session data that i use to set like this:

Code:

$param = $this->uri->segment(3);
$this->session->set_userdata('site_lang',$param)

so where i can retrieve session->userdata('site_lang'); and put my new session site language for all helpers ,libraries and so on... ??
thanks guys

I don't really have any experience working with multi-language sites, but I searched the forums for "form validation language" and there are plenty of posts that seem to deal with this same issue. You should check them out.

yes slowgary thanks for suggest.....

i've found this $this->config->config['language'] = $language_i_want;


i think this could be the solution
