Re: [Po4a-devel] XML: prevent some attributes from being translated
If useful, I could also provide an option to indicate that
placeholders
should be changed to inline if they have less than XXX characters.
Currently, I don't think it is necessary. Placeholders should be used when
the block is context free enough so that translation can be reused.
such an option would be just fine, i would always use it regardless of the
number of chars.
i understand the purpose of placeholders and how useful they must be for
other modules, it's just that without inlining i can't use them for html
links. good job though!
maybe placeholders are just not the right way to go around this; i've
thought of simple regexp replacements so that:
<a href=... target=...>link text</a>
in the master document is changed into:
<link>link text</link>
in the pot file.
the challenge then will be to replace <link>s back into corresponding <a
...> tags when generating translated pages.
