I understand it that Richard wants to set up a database for translations
of phrases, error messages... whatever occurs in the installation
process so later localized versions of Slinky can easily be built. This
is a Good Idea (TM) IMHO. I propose the following structure:
Table PHRASE
id LONG INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY
english VARCHAR(255) (or a longer TEXT field)
Table TRANSLATION
id LONG INT
lang CHAR(5)
translation VARCHAR(255) (or a longer TEXT field)
lang has a length of 5 so sub-languages like en-us and en-uk can be
used. The language should come from a drop-down list in the HTML form,
just like the phrase you want to translate (which will give the ID
number as value).

Best regards,
Martin Stricker
