the widget is about 8-12 month old :) |
Right that's why it looked familiar, but the tags are new :-) |
The meta tag is not new, but the class is new.
See, for example, the archived version of Google Translate FAQ from March 2007: http://web.archive.org/web/20070306233408/http://www.google.com/intl/en/help/faq_translation.html |
(Thanks, added an update!) |
Aside from microformats, I think this is the first time a company wants to standardize a specific value (notranslate) for the class attribute. |
I would have liked to see a class that allows translation of only certain blocks of text while the rest of the page is disabled from translation by the meta tag. This would save me from adding the notranslate class to numerous spans/divs/etc. |
This would be good to stop it from translating my first name into "Invoice" or something. |
what happens if we copy paste the content from webpage and then transilate.
Thanks, Dutt |
Technically this is very difficult to prevent. I believe you can do that always, in fact |
