Evan,
Are you proposing something like AJAX does? My understanding is limited
here, so bear with me. A control like a hidden imbedded frame (IFRAME) is
acted upon by Javascript to cause it to dynamically request loading a page
into the frame, and when loaded, the javascript processes the contents of
the frame without necessarily displaying it directly?
And then do the translation on the client?
Could work, but I was thinking more of doing the tranlation in a function in
PHP, but that may be because PHP is my perspective. Something like;
--------------------------- snip --------------------------
Html stuff
<?php echo scripttranslate("
Php code follows here.... Careful with quotes"); ?>
More html stuff
--------------------------- snip --------------------------
Or
--------------------------- snip --------------------------
Echo "html stuff here"
.scripttranslate("php stuff here..."
." again carefull with quotes")
."more html stuff here"); // end of echo statement
--------------------------- snip --------------------------

Tell you what: write file_get_contents() in Javascript, and I'll write the
rest of it.
