Internet Explorer and minor fixes
Any luck on making this work with IE?

Apart from the bugs with the line-breaks, it doesn't seem to be translating at all.

Bugs
Also, the translation messes up wiki-syntax like tables and other things with curly brackets ("{").

Apart from the mentioned issues, thanks for a cool tool.

Improvements?
Hi I'm back. Don't know if Im doing anything though ... still running on version 1.12 and all.

Anyway I have not found a solution for the IE problem, someone that knows more about php etc. please advice or change the code!!

Anyway I consider how to improve the concept.

I've successfully installed your extension and it works well as described. Is there any way you can configure the extension to translate only "selected" text?

Current state of the code
This works for me, but you may run into problems. This is tested on plain text, but it may not handle texts that contain scripts, templates etc. Please let me know what does not work, or suggest solutions. :-)

The text is translated one sentence a time - this is due to a current limit in the API. In the case that the API actually do a context sensitive translation a section by section approach may give better results. Anyway this gives me a fair translation from English to Danish - and it appears to do the same for English/Swedish,Norwegian and Finish!


 * It works also for German to English (tested with Firefox, Opera and Chrome). But the button shows left in the row, not right. And the "click here to translate" is strange to use, because it's not shown as a link, but works as a link. Other observations: Everything is translated, from "Bild:" to "Image:" to all of the other links and categories. Thank you for your helpful work, and keep perfecting the extension! --Gerd-Lothar Reschke 22:10, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
 * The "click here to translate" does not shown as a link, and is not clickable. Therefore it doesnt work at all. I'm running Mediawiki 1.19.2 if that can be the reason. Please help me out! --78.79.143.209 23:21, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
