Hello,

I visit often to see your site! You really have a beautiful site, a beautiful community! We find lots of good tips and advice.

I am an amateur astronomer for 5 years now.

If you want to visit me, www.astro-photo.ca, my site is in french but I make references to sites both french and English. I mention your site on my site!

I wish you a Happy New Year 2012 filled with starry night.

friendship

Hi Francois and welcome to IIS
My partner and I were in Quebec back in September, lovely part of the world. Just loved Quebec City and wonderful countryside.

Thank you all for that warm welcome.

And thank you for taking your time to visit my site (in french)! Thank you.

I saw that some astronomer in your country have taken a very nice picture of the last comet Lovejoy.

Congratulations to you all!

See you soon

Francois, if you were to change the <HTML> tag to <HTML LANG="fr"> people's browsers would probably offer to translate to their preferred language for them. This is the W3 recommended way to do it.

warbird (Francois) · #10 09-01-2012, 02:44 AM

Thank you for the tips!

I will try it today will see what happen!

warbird (Francois) · #11 09-01-2012, 02:52 AM

The change was just made!

Please try and leave me your feedback!

Thank's

It works Francois. As soon as I opened your home page I got the "This page is in French. Do you want to translate it?" popup. Example:

Welcome to astrophotography Francois Tasse

Over time, you can follow my progress as an amateur astronomer. Here I will share with you, my good shots, the worst, the tips and tricks, some tinkering to me useful, I think some new important and of course the most important; photos!

I hope the site will be useful, and that you will return often!

So read, happy surfing!

Google does not do a good job of idiomatic phrases, but it is sufficient to be understood.

warbird (Francois) · #13 09-01-2012, 08:43 AM

Sound good!

Enjoy! I work to translate everything, to let people choose between french or english!

Thank you for your precious help!
