Hi,
I discovered this script a week ago, and I totally loved it. I quickly created a tuto on how to install it, in french, on my Facebook profile, and that's when I realised it wasn't translated... yet.
So I opened my editor, and I started working on it.

But I stumbled upon some problems, thus this message without any finished code.

First of all, zodiac signs aren't included in the lang var. It would be a great idea to include them in, since there are some major differences between english and french in the naming of these signs.
Anyway, I've translated them folowing the Date.prototype.getSign included in function processPage() :
("Capricorne","Verseau","Poissons","Bélier","Taureau","Gémeaux","Cancer","Lion","Vierge","Balance","Scorpion","Sagittaire")

Then, I had some problems with var lang. Here they are :

'ConfBlockThirdPartyStreams' : 'Automatically block streams for 3rd party apps (use \'edit options\' below the feed to unblock).',
-> Which feed ? I can't find any feed, thus I can't translate correctly the term "feed".

'ConfGoogleCalendar' : 'Add links to add birthdays and events to Google Calendar.',
-> There's no fr.wikipedia page on Google Calendar (translated Google Agenda), so I picked up the Trial page from Google itself ( http://www.google.com/intl/fr/googlecalendar/to... ). Is it ok ?

'LoadingPic' : 'Loading Pic...',
-> I haven't seen that anywhere on Facebook with the script activated... When does it shows that ? Is "Pic" a picture, like I think it is ?

I've almost finished the translation of the var lang (just some corrections to make), I'm waiting for your answers to upload it.
Meanwhile, I'll do the translation of lang['en']['ConfShortuctList'] :)

Hi Aelidnel,

Thanks for the translation.

I'll try to come up with a better way to handle the zodiac signs.

For 'ConfBlockThirdPartyStreams' the feed being referred to is the main content of the home page where you see all the stuff your friends have done. At the bottom of that section is a link to configure what type of items appear. In the french version the link is titled "Modifier les options".

For 'ConfGoogleCalendar' using the link to Google's page is fine.

'LoadingPic' is the alternate text used for popup images, in other words it is the text that is shown in place of the picture when a popup picture appears but before it actually loads. Yes, 'pic' refers to picture.

If you are willing to keep your translation up to date, could you send me your email address or Facebook id/username so I can let you know that updates are needed before I release the script. You could send me private message instead of posting it here.

Vaughan

For all those who are interested, Facebook Fixer now speaks French. Thanks again Aelidnel.
