I LatinoKing, you would do this using the require() or include() functions and a case statement, according to a posted variable.

(I'm using no reference so do not just directly copy this code and use it, re-make it to the specifics of your requirement. This text is just a guideline to help you.)

Imagine a user goes to you index page and has an option to select language, e.g

<a href="index.php?lang=eng>English</a>
<a href="index.php?lang=fra>French</a>

You would have the if statement in your index file like so:

$lang = $_POST["lang"];



switch ($lang)

{
case eng:

include(englishfile.php);

break;

case fra:

include(frenchfile.php);

break;

default:

echo "Please select a language";
echo "

<a href="index.php?lang=eng>English</a>
<a href="index.php?lang=fra>French</a>

";

";
}

Or you could do it a bit more of a complicated, but professional way...
