Each one would have noticed the variety of visitors who come to your blog. So why not cater to a wider audience, by allowing auto-translation of your blogs. Do you see those flags at the top of this page..go ahead, clik one and you will see that this blog gets translated automatically.Googling landed me at Amit’s post.I am merely replicating Amit’s Translation Instruction so that people who stumble on my blog can also have the oppurtuniy to know about this feature. I must add that i did modify his instruction a little bit to make it work for me.This is how i did it
STEP:-0
SAVE YOUR TEMPLATE
STEP:-1
copy the following code to the notepad
Replace <<YOURBLOG_url>> with your blog url (eg.horizonwitinus.blogspot.com –this is my blog url)
STEp:-3
After doing all the changes you can add a HTML/JAVASCRIPT page element and add this code to it
STEP:-4
Move the widget to the position of your choice
Let the auto-translation do the magic for you with NON-ENGLISH speaking readers
Hello Deepa, I tried to use your code for the translator, but all that showed on my blog was the code – there are no flags. How does one get the flags? Thank you
This is the blog I was trying to test it on. http://betterblog8.blogspot.com/

I will continue to work on it in various ways until I hear from you. Thank you, again.
Deepa, I have it working ok now. I found further information. But for some reason I couldn’t get yours to work. As I said earlier, the code showed even though I put it into an HTML/JavaScript element. And there were no flags. Maybe there is something else needed along with it.
Welcome barbee
I am happy that u were able to make the translation work
I dont know why my code didnot work for you.. coz i have copy pasted the code directly from my template..yet.. i will do a test blog and try it again

Bom Dia Deepa:
I am a Canadian living in Brasil now. I just added your Babel Translation to a couple of my BLOGS. It works well. But Babel translations are not as good as they look. However they do give someone speaking another language an idea of what the BLOG is all about.
I am in the process of manually fully translating some of my blogs to Brasilian Portuguese so Babel will have a devil of a time with those English and Portuguese translations on the same page.
If you are interested, look at one of my BLOGS, they all have links to each other. Try http://amazingjabuticaba.blogspot.com
I am having fun utilizing some of your ideas. They are great. By the way, where did you get that clock? I like that.
Cheers

One more question, how to put the flag underneath the blog title?
Hi Deepa,
I found out that script is not work for Japanese,French and Spanish. Could you pls rectified it?
hi Kulats..If you want to add the pic of a Flag beneath the blog title..which if i undestand as having a header pic and then the title over it.. then you have to see..Pic in header
OR
If you are looking for the header where wyou want to add the pic of flag as a seperate entitly then i suggest you have a 3 colum header whre you can put the flag where ever you feel like..
I am sorry taht i am unable to view your blog and give more personalised answer.
As for the translation.. i think its the prob with the server.I shall check again for couple of days before actully trying to alter the code
Deepa

Hi kulats.
Good to see u back
With the translators.. i think the server is undergoing some maintenence work.coz some translations work on and off..
so i am not prepared to meddle with this.
As for adsense.. i dont know..
i personally donot prefer ads in blogs..its gratly annoying (for my eyes).
However many benifit and have a parllel income form adsense..So i am not the correct person to advice in this regards
I still kind of feel sad taht i cant see u r blog 🙁
