more of the Fun Stuff..

So, thanks to Great advice from ghj42, I'm on a Euphoric rush. So I coded this to have the text "total" show up in the cart right next to the cartTotals:

'<div class="cartBoxTotal"><span class="textTotal">Totalt</span>' . $currencies->format($_SESSION['cart']->show_total()) . '</div>';

Could this also be done a better way??

I'd recommend spelling it without a "t" at the end.

I guess that's the better way...

Re: more of the Fun Stuff..

For multi-lingual sites it would be better to define the text in a PHP constant in your language files and then echo the constant,

Re: more of the Fun Stuff..

You go to the language files for each of pages where you want to use the text, and each of the language on your site and create an override file for your template (there's more on this in the FAQ) and add an additional entry as per the "define" statements already there.

Then in your code snippet above, instead of > <span class="textTotal">Totalt</span>you'd put

<span class="textTotal"><?php echo YOUR_NEW_DEFINED_CONSTANT_NAME; ?></span>
