The parser's current treatment of things means
that something like
<language code="en">
Some text in English.
</language>
<language code="fr">
Un peu de texte en Français.*
</language>
<multilang />
will *work*, but the whitespace the <language> tags leave behind isn't
collapsed down so there's a lot of it at the top of the page or
wherever.
I've tried the extension today - unfortunately, it doesn't work for me:
After downloading bot MUTLILANG.PHP and MULTILANG.CLASS.PHO from
Subversion and adding
require_once("extensions/Multilang/Multilang.php");
to LOCALSETTINGS.PHP, I've created the following section in my sandbox page:
== Multilang ==
regular text
<language code="en">
Some text in English.
</language>
<language code="de">
Ein wenig Text auf deutsch.
</language>
<language code="fr">
Un peu de texte en Français.
</language>
<multilang/>
regular text
However, all I get is blank lines in between the "regular text" parts
(i.e. not even the "<multilang/>" part works.
I haven't updated from v1.8.x yet, but I don't think this extension is
1.9.x-specific... !?
It's probably some kinda syntax error, but that's hard to check due to
the missing documentation.
I'd appreciate some input!
