Can I translate my website with Google Translate? - google-translate

I have a web page created in English. Depending on the
continent, I want to dynamically translate my whole webpage to another
language.
The webpage is fairly complex, so I cannot do it string by string. I just want to do it in a way like at the time of loading it will get translated into desired language.
Can I translate my webpage using the Google Translate API?

Here is an example to to add Google translator to web page to translate specific element:
<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<div class="translate">Тестирование</p>
<div class="translate_control" lang="en"></div>
<script>
function googleSectionalElementInit() {
new google.translate.SectionalElement({
sectionalNodeClassName: 'translate',
controlNodeClassName: 'translate_control',
background: '#f4fa58'
}, 'google_sectional_element');
}
</script>
<script src="//translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleSectionalElementInit&ug=section&hl=en"></script>
</body>
</html>
http://jsfiddle.net/maxim75/H3Wkr/ - working example

You could add a Google Translate widget to you page and users can translate to their language of choice on demand. http://www.google.com/webelements/#!/translate

By visiting google translate tool it generate a code that you add in your website.
It's also possible directly by using a url
http://www.google.com/translate?sl=XX&tl=YY&u=http://www.trial.com
where xx is the original language, yy the language to translate...
Maybe my tutorial will be helpful: google translate.

Yes, you can. See Google Translate API documentation here: http://code.google.com/apis/language/translate/v2/getting_started.html
Note that automated machine translation is, as of 2011, not an adequate match for human translation, so don't expect that the translated text will be perfect - it will probably be understandable with effort, but it will be obvious that it's machine-translated.

Probably you can use microsoft translator API.. you can find the implementation at
http://code.google.com/p/micrsoft-translator-php-wrapper/
and you can see the demo also

Does WebMango support uploading DICOM images?

I am confused about uploading new DICOM images to webMango. I was able to do it in the desktop version, but I am unable to do it in webMango? Is it possible using WebMango to view a DICOM image? OR not?
Is it always that I have to provide the params ?
Kindly advice.
Thank you
Yes, you can view DICOM images in webMango. You configure it similar to Papaya, except that you need to put double-quotes around the parameter values. (Also note the images array contains another array of DICOM series URLs.) Here's an example:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>webMango</title>
<script src="mango.js"></script>
<script src="https://www.java.com/js/deployJava.js"></script>
<script>
var params = [];
params["images"] = "[['data/volume/brain_001.dcm', 'data/volume/brain_002.dcm', 'data/volume/brain_003.dcm']]";
params["atlas"] = "data/Talairach.xml";
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>This is an example use of webMango.</p>
<div style="width:800px;" class="mango"></div>
</body>
</html>
webMango cannot see the local filesystem. So you can only load files via URL references in the params variable. I think it would be technically possible to allow it to see the local filesystem (at least on some platforms), but browsers have been dropping support for Java applets in recent years, putting up more and more hurdles. I'd recommend Papaya over webMango in most cases.

Twitter Helper with webmatrix issue. Displays blank page

I'm attempting to teach myself ASP.Net and I've decided to start with web pages so I'm going through the tutorial here
The problem I'm running into is that I can't get the Twitter helper to work. I just get a blank page and can't figure out what the issue is. I have checked to make sure the Twitter helper is installed and intellsense recognizes the TwitterGoodie methods. Here is my code...
#{
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>twittertest</title>
</head>
<body>
<div>
#TwitterGoodies.Search("webmatrix")
</div>
</body>
</html>
The package referenced in the article you linked to uses version 1.0 of the Twitter API which was deprecated in June 2013. Hence nothing appears on your page. If you want a Twitter widget to appear on a page, go and get one directly from them: https://twitter.com/settings/widgets/new

Google Plus Share Button not showing description tags... an Unannounced Google Platform change?

OK guys, tell me what I am doing wrong... Is this a new Google Plus issue? Or — to use an old Facebook term I created — an Unannounced Platform Change? (note the date of this question)
Please Note that I'm asking about Google Plus Share Buttons, not the GP+1 like button which is a different beast…
The Description Tag is not passed thru to the share window or to the Google Plus page post. If you inspect the Google window code with Firebug, you will see this:
<div class="Zm"></div>
…which is where the description tag should display.
Demo and source code located here.
Now...
The demo and the more complex script are both HTML5 validated. I have tested this with both schema.org tags and open graph tags:
All Tags work fine in the Google Structured Data Testing Tool here.
Results are the same in both cases: description tag does not display, so that's not the problem.
I have tested this on http:// and https:// with the same results: description tag does not display, so that's not the problem.
I have tested this on FF22.0 with and without AdBlockPlus && Chrome 28.0 and the results are the same: description tag does not display, so that's not the problem.
I have tested different button types with the same results: description does not display, so that's not the problem.
And I have googled for hours… and cannot find any "current links" to this issue that are not simple code errors.
So what part of this am I missing?
Any ideas, comments, suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated!
Google+ dropped the shared page's description.
You can find indications of that by looking at the "Basic Page" example at https://developers.google.com/+/web/share/ which used to show a description until several weeks ago. The current status of Google documentation clearly shows that a "description" is not expected or used anymore.
<html>
<head>
<title>Share demo: Basic page</title>
<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.example.com" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js">
</script>
</head>
<body>
<g:plus action="share"></g:plus>
</body>
</html>
So, the only important tags are:
the "page title",
and — optionally — the "canonical link" (for SEO reasons).
That's it!
Obviously, Google downgraded website descriptions to less relevant in Google+ just like they did in their search engine a long time ago.
Most probably this was done for the same reasons Google once started to put less emphasis on the description of pages in their Search Engine product too: to avoid spam and keyword stuffing from polluting their Google Search and Google+ products.
For additional, "official" reference that Google generally marked descriptions to be "less important" a long time ago, check https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/35624?rd=1 which states in the section "Create good meta descriptions":
...Google will sometimes use the meta description of a page in search results snippets, if we think it gives users a more accurate description than would be possible purely from the on-page content...
Well, "sometimes" obviously does not include Google+ (anymore) and — to be honest — I see their point. After all, you can (and should) "describe" the link in your Google+ post textarea yourself… which would also be the most logic thing to do: tell your users why the linked website is worth visiting instead of relying on a site's description.
You can use Google Snippet via meta tags to inform google what to display when your link is shared... You can view details # https://developers.google.com/+/web/snippet/ (Customize the snippet people see when your page is shared. Using this tool, you can generate code for your page that indicates the images and text that best represent what's being shared.)
<!-- Update your html tag to include the itemscope and itemtype attributes. -->
<html itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Article">
<!-- Add the following three tags inside head. -->
<meta itemprop="name" content="Title For Example.com">
<meta itemprop="description" content="Sample Description For The Article..">
<meta itemprop="image" content="http://www.example.com/1.jpg">
Hope this helps.

PHP and a google translator API alternative

Since Google is going to pull the plug out of their translator API (by the end of this year), Is there someone who already found a good (free or $) alternative?
Try TranslateThis on http://translateth.is/...
Is very simple! To see the effects try this piece of code:
<!-- Begin TranslateThis Button -->
<div id="translate-this"><a style="width:180px;height:18px;display:block;" class="translate-this-button" href="http://translateth.is/">Translate</a></div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://x.translateth.is/translate-this.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
TranslateThis();
</script>
<!-- End TranslateThis Button -->
Don't worry about the button aspect... You can customize it!
Google is offering and alternative to website translation. Its the GOOGLE WEB ELEMENTS, and some code from the google's web elements homepage itself for translation
<!-- Google Translate Element -->
<div id="google_translate_element" style="display:block"></div><script>
function googleTranslateElementInit() {
new google.translate.TranslateElement({pageLanguage: "af"}, "google_translate_element");
};</script>
Other alternatives:
Microsoft Translation Tools
they offer HTTP, SOAP and SDK interfaces for integration.
If you need just language detection, there is free API:
http://detectlanguage.com
It produces JSON output, just like Google Translate.

does TinyMCE supports other languages to compose HTML emails?

I have used Tiny mce once in a asp.net project and found it a very nice tool.
Here is requirement of composing HTML emails in languages other then English (Spanish, French, German and Arabic) in asp.net project.
Kindly guide me does tiny mce support languages other then English ? Is it something tiny mce should be supporting or something will be required on client side to be installed ?
Thanks for your time and sharing.
You need to add on the html generated part from this editor, a header that says the language that the text are, just like you do on html pages. Then you add this html text to your html part of your email and send it.
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=LanguageEncodingCode" />
<body>
.............. paste here what you get from this html editors.............
</body>
</html>
