Great article, I had to do something similar few years back. Good to see some of the ideas we had were the same. Just wait till you have to mirror the site for Arabic etc. That's when it gets fun.
- lars512 13y agoThanks! Even moving to CJK will be fun, though a right-to-left script sounds like it could break all kinds of layout assumptions.
- bricestacey 13y agoIt seems you're already over the hurdle of not assuming other languages have the same grammar as English. From my experience (internationalizing a site for English and Japanese with both heavy back and front end rendering) with that groundwork laid, at least Japanese is relatively simple. A favorite solution for varying lengths of content is html's flex box. Luckily I only had to support WebKit.
