    I know according to the rule book only English posts are allowed. Could there be a functionality by which the non-English sentences can be converted to English, something similar to what Google translator does. I mean if someone posts a question in say french, CP will convert it to English while displaying it to viewers. Obviously there could be a link (or button) to see the original post(in french). NB: Please ignore the grammar mistakes (thanks to FF for covering my spelling mistakes)

    Apurv If Java had true garbage collection, most programs would delete themselves upon execution.

      Could you not then, copy the results yourself from Google and paste them here on Code Project just the same?

        Auto-translation is notoriously bad. If a reader truly has a problem with English then the answers he or she may get are also going to need translating. At one point we did have the Windows Live translator gadget but it proved buggy and not as effective as one would hope.
