Hi everyone,

Im new to website localization and I started doing some research on how to go about it. To my surprise I found out that a lot of knowledge, skills and software are required. I´ve been reading many threads related to this topic but I couldn´t find anything such as:

3. What project management tool can support any of the tools needed to go about static and dynamic websites?

Any comments or ideas will be much appreciated!

Thank you! ▲ Collapse

1. SDL Trados, Wordfast Pro, ... most recent CATs can be used to translate html.

3. In my opinion, these are totally different things. The simpliest management tool is a sheet of paper, but you can also put your information in an Excel file or even use the Windows tree structure to organize your files in the way you want. There are also specialized tools, other translators will tell you more about that. ▲ Collapse

content extraction Aug 28, 2012

Thank you Christela for your answer. It was very clear.

Now, what about content extraction? Because I´ve been told that if I have to extract content from a dynamic website is not as easy and straightforward as in a static site.
Ideally, the client would be working with a webmaster but I came across many cases in which the client did not take care of his site and once the website was finished he did not hear from the webmaster again. In such cases, I´d like to know who you as... See more

Ideally, the client would be working with a webmaster but I came across many cases in which the client did not take care of his site and once the website was finished he did not hear from the webmaster again. In such cases, I´d like to know who you ask for the extracted text, or where to take it from.

Thank you in advance! ▲ Collapse
