I am building a 4 language site with categories in the contact form, I am using drupal 5 and the localizer module and cannot find the way to translate the categories. If someone could help I would really appreciate it.

I have the same problem and couldn't solve it.

Without knowing too much, I tryed adding this code:

$conf['i18n_variables'] = array(
    'cid'
);

Which is the id of the category select, but it didn't made any change.

I've created a simple module and using form altering, dont know if it work for Drupal4.

Contents of %modulename%.module:

<?php

function %modulename%_form_alter($form_id, &$form)
{
	if ($form_id == "contact_mail_page")
	{
		$categories = $form['cid']['#options'];
		if (count($categories))
		{
			foreach ($categories as $key => $category) $tCategories[$key] = t($category);
			$form['cid']['#options'] = $tCategories;
		}
	}
}

?>

If anybody still looking for the solution, I modified the above code for D6:

function %modulename%_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id)
{
    if ($form_id == "contact_mail_page")
    {
        $categories = $form['cid']['#options'];
        if (count($categories))
        {
            foreach ($categories as $key => $category) $tCategories[$key] = t($category);
            $form['cid']['#options'] = $tCategories;
        }
    }
}

There's also tContact.module for that, but I haven't tried it.
