    Question changing file names to accommodate another language

    I am an Englishman living and working in Germany and have successfully set up the FormMail, with a little guidance from the creator, to work on the English language part of our site, see: https://www.neardark.de/shop_content...equest-Account

    And I am very happy with the results now, especially since I have enabled the: fmbadhandler.php.

    My question is, because I have access to German translators in my office, so don't need a language pack, would it adversely affect the functionality of the script, if I changed name of the fmbadhandler.php to fmbadhandler-en.php & fmbadhandler-de.php and had each language's form use the appropriate version for the corresponding 'bad_url' value?

    If not, where else, would I need to change the name of the file fmbadhandler.php. Of course, each form, would have its own 'form action' formail.php file.

    thanks for any tips,

    Hi,

    Yes, you can rename fmbadhandler as you wish. It's only referenced in the "bad_url" field in your form.

    However, fmbadhandler usually just displays your own "bad_template" (error template) contents to the user. So, you can have different translations of your error template and will not need two copies of fmbadhandler.
