Hi Everyone!

I used the Codeigniter (i18n) library to internationalization my site.
I wanna make a view file with a dropdown list with languages like this.
The user can select a language.
How can i set language with the main controller by the selected element value.
(How to add the url the selected element’s value like this “http://localhost/multilang/de”)

I have an Ajax.js with i can get the selected elemenet, and i can send it to controller by post.

XML

<select>
  <option value="en">English</option>
  <option value="fr">French</option>
  <option value="hu">Hungarian</option>
  <option value="ro">Romanian</option>
</select>
( I am sorry for my bad English.)

HTML

<select>
  <option value="en">English</option>
  <option value="fr" SELECTED>French</option><!--this will be selected-->
  <option value="hu">Hungarian</option>
  <option value="ro">Romanian</option>
</select>

if you want to change selected value using javascript the the code is simple:

JavaScript

document.getElementById('SelectObjectId').value='hu';
