I have made my own version based on your original idea and google's demo code.

I named it GoogleTrans2, so that it is not mistaken for your version.

My features:
1. full language list in source and destination dropdowns
2. support for autodetection of input language
3. confirmation of source/destination languages (including detected language)
4. clean interface sized for the 5800XM screen

It can be downloaded here: http://www.rmx.ro/GoogleTrans2.wgz

It can be tested here:
http://www.rmx.ro/GT.html

I plan on trying to make it scale to any screen but I didn't have the time to test that code yet.

I would also like to add that I have virtually no JavaScript or AJAX experience whatsoever.

Hi again,

I have managed to read up on widgets and realized they are basically a ZIP archive.

I have now modified the widget to display all google languages, not just a subset.

Thank you !

Hi, great little widget. Can you please post more details into how the languages menu can be customized. I am not that familiar with the WRT or the widget structure but once I find the HTML to edit I can do that. Please tell us where to look for it.

Thanks again!

@mehrdad sorry for getting back so late. I am not sure what is happening to your E90. I have tried N95, iPhone, and 5800 XpressMusic. They all work fine...

BTW, you have firefox for E90? That's news to me.

2009-04-22T18:07:00.000-07:00

Update: I tried the URL in Camelot again with all my browsers in E90:
Native browser which is the most complete has no response to the GO command. The same is for my OPERA.

Fortunately the firefox brwoser does the job but for some reasons I see double identical texts in input and out put boxes!!!

hi again and thanks for your attention:-) i tried the link and i could translate a text once but after testing the widget again (which failed) the translator on the browser also disactivated!
So now both the widget and the link have the same problem: nothing happens after clicking on GO!!!

@mehrdad Interesting... would you do me a favor and enter this URL, http://camelot.net/stage/gtranslator/, in your browser? This page has the same code as the widget. You can check this url with Firefox, IE, or Safari also. See, if the browser in your E90 has the same behavior. I cannot offer you more then saying this may be a bug in the browser. Cheers!

hi, thanks for your efforts writing this widget, yet nothing happens when I click on GO on my Nokia E90 !!! What should I do?

Just want to report on the Clipboarddata function. S60 WRT does not seem to support this. Therefore it will be difficult to implement the copy button. If anyone has a suggestion on doing this, please let me know.

2009-02-04T10:09:25.942-08:00

@VIP, I will find some time to check that out. I have read about window.clipboarddata function in javascript, but not sure if S60 WRT support it. It is a good suggestion!

@Felipe, LOL I actually had to use my app to know what your comment was. :p Thanks!

Esta aplicación está realmente muy útil e interesante, la he probado en mi N95 y funciona a la perfección. Lo felicito desde Costa Rica.
De verdad muchísimas gracias!

I will look into Java ME app. I have move the html to my web server too, so you can use that for now from your normal phone browser.

Compliments!

Would it be possibile to have a port to Java Me, for the people who doesn't have WRT on their phones? ;)
