I want to set all of my site to German although I'm using a English (UK) XP
system.

I can set individual pages to German however when I try going to Tools/Site
Settings/Lanaguages I can only select "English (US)".

How do I install German so its selectable?

Thanks,

Robert.

In Tools Site Settings Language select US/Western European for the default page encoding
(also select ignore the keyboard)
- you can change the server message language unless you install that languages FP SE

In your page select the language you want (Page properties language)
- or edit your new page template to use the German language encoding as

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="de">

I'm not sure I explained myself properly.

We have forms on our website. If you fill out a form incorrectly ( break
the validation rules ) a box pop's up saying "Please Complete....". Its a
german website so it should say this in German. The FP bots control the
validation. So I could do it the long way round and capture the resuting
Java script and translate it into German etc. However it seems highly
likely that FP can do all this for me.

It subsequently turns out that even setting the page's language to German
doesn't change the effect of the pop-up box.

The form web bot is installed and run from the server, is the server's default language setting,
German? The web host may be able to configure the extensions for the web account to support German.

They would need to install the German FP SE from

I think I am going to go mad here.

I've contacted my hosting provider and they don't believe the link below
would resolve the problem.

The page I have a problem is this one www.trainingcamp.de/de/pricing.asp

If you don't fill any boxes in and press the "submit" button the pop up
message is in English. How can I make it be in German without editing the
HTML code and by "just" using FP like I do for my English pages.

Thanks!

Is the site hosted on a server that is running the German version of Windows? If not, then they are
correct, and you will need to hand code your JS validation script in German.
