PHP Intl Class Datetime Google Translate Tutorial
The Internationalization improvements of yesterday’s PHP Intl Class Datetime Clock Tutorial get another boost today via the inclusion of some interfacing to the great …
… for those incidental translations regarding …
- titles and headings
- dropdown instructions
… while avoiding what might add confusion, that being any translation of user web application settings, as you might get … you being the user … that is!
But we ask first on this. And when it is the case for asking here, a useful mechanism can be the HTML input type=checkbox element which now feeds into the Javascript below …

Yesterday’s PHP Intl Class Datetime Defaults Tutorial‘s PHP web application involves …
- timezones … and, for us, whenever that happens, our eyes light up with “possibility” because …
- “where” meets “when” … when you have timezones involved … and to our mind …
- “where” and “when” are the best catered for “adverbs” in the I.T. wooooorrrrlllldddd
Invariably, too, the data is “full of possibility” regarding simple ideas of “internationalization” that are easy to deploy, such as …
- emoji flags
- Wikipedia lookups in the form of tabulated lists
And so, though our last web application is not totally disengageable from our English bias, we can help its “Internationalization Credentials” today, via …

Our (Mac OS X laptop) local MAMP web server is an Apache/PHP/MySql web server. In this environment you can find out a lot with some PHP code as per …
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
… and if, in doing this, you find a reference to the “mbstring” Multibyte String Information functionality existing, you are a lucky candidate to introduce some internationalization code into your PHP code, for those occasions where the destination language uses a UTF-8 character set where individual characters can not be described by the ascii character set from decimal 0 to decimal 255. In other words, it takes more than one byte to describe each character of the language. There are many languages like this, a few being the Chinese languages, Japanese and Korean.
We followed a lot of the advice of the very useful link (thanks) to create some PHP called …
… where we show what we always suspected but were too shy to ask, and didn’t flesh it out before … doh! … you can’t split a Chinese phrase’s characters into their individual characters and expect those characters individually translated bring you back to the sense of the Chinese phrase to start with.
So we take the Chinese phrase 火车票 (which translates into English as “Train tickets” … and we thank Google Translate for help with all this) and use PHP mbstring’s mb_str_split to properly split the Chinese into its constituent multibyte (UTF-8) characters (and along the way, show that PHP str_split messes up this same task, as you’d probably guess would happen), and then translate all these into English using Google Translate, as an intellectual exercise.
If this exercise makes you …
- a) fall on the floor laughing
- b) hit a gong with a huge hammer
- c) cook up some deep fried dumplings
- d) put the left chopstick in the right ear and the right chopstick in the left ear (please ask for adult supervision) … translation: do not do this
- e) while reading you sweep the cat under the rug (no animals were harmed in the making of this blog posting)
… then we’re here to tell you that you need to take a Bex and have a lie down.
We are just showing in PHP that if the mbstring functionality is available to you, that the mbstring library of functionality can help with some Internationalization issues you may be grappling with and that this PHP code you could try via this live run link.
