how to use HTML tags in translation?
Sunday 07 February 2010 1:01:58 am - 2 replies
I would like to use some HTML tags in translation source in translation.ts. For example, something like this:
<message> <source>Fields marked with <span>*</span> are mandatory</source> <translation>Fields marked with <span>*</span> are mandatory</translation>
is this possible and how?
Because when I put just <span> like in this example, the translation file doesn't validate. Is there some way to escape "<" and ">" characters?

use < and >
nb: I generally think this is a VERY bad idea, as you are preventing the translation from usage in non-html mode (eg. emails or xml output), and hardcoding some design into it. You should rather split your phrases in smaller parts...

Here is a proper eZ Publish way example:
{'Fields marked with %open_tag*%close_tag are mandatory'|i18n('design/custom/context', ,hash('%open_tag', '<span>', '%close_tag', '</span>'))}
