Translate tool for websites using Google and Bing

  This translate tool will essentially give you quite a few html links which when clicked upon will automatically submit the webpage page url to translate.google.com and microsofttranslator.com where you can view the translated version of the same page. The tool depends on the availability of both the services though :-). You need to set the source webpage language in the scripts correctly to ensure that to tool works properly.

 Once the source webpage language is set. The scripts have JavaScript arraylist(s) which contain language key-value pairs where the value is displayed in the webpage and the key gets submitted as the part of the submission URL to the translation websites. The for loop in the script essentially creates the translation links dynamically by iterating through the language key value pairs appending them to the translator urls.

 The Version of the scripts from this blog which opens the pages in new window or tab and has style sheet applied to the links are further down
