BabelKit Multilanguage Code Select PHP Demo

BabelKit - Interface to a universal multilingual code table.

The codified values stored in database fields are not language sensitive. However, web pages and other documents often need to display the code descriptions in various languages.

BabelKit makes this a snap to program. You can see the PHP method calls to BabelKit that produce these multilingual HTML select elements.

This page shows off the BabelKit code select functions. Select another language for the code description display. Select various combinations of countries and months then click [Test BabelKit] at the bottom to see the selected codes:

VariableCode(s)
$display_lang''
$mycurrency''

country[]
month[]
