Look at the Accept-Language header the user sends you and serve
content in her preferred language. Apache will do this for you with
mod_negotiation . See

"Apache Content Negotiation",

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/content-negotiation.html

Ah, are you talking about the user manually selecting her preferred
language?

As an aside, whichever of the methods you adopt to present the language on
the site, make sure that you have the text translated by a professional (or
at least a very competent speaker of the language), and not by an automated
service such as Google's language tools.

As an example I took your original post to Google's language tools (and
modified some spelling and punctuation to at least give it a fighting
chance). I translated the following from English to French: "does anyone
know of any php script which can change the language of the webpage on the
fly? i have seen many websites which have several language options to
choose from"

Which gave the following: "est-ce que n'importe qui sait d'un manuscrit de
php qui peut changer la langue du webpage en marche? j'ai vu beaucoup de
websites dont ayez plusieurs options de langue à choisir"

Which I then translated back to English, giving the following: "does no
matter who know of a manuscript of php which can change the language of the
webpage moving? I saw many websites of which have several options of
language to choose"

Cheers,
Nige
