greetings,

I've installed Drupal 5.5 with all the I18N modules to run a small website which should be fully bilingual, English and Italian.Now, please compare http://strider.zona-m.net/?q=en with http://strider.zona-m.net/?q=it

I have managed to get left side menus working in both languages, and each item (cfr "gear" and "equipaggiamento", which are translations of each other) lists all the nodes tagged with that category in the proper language. I am wondering, however, if I have done things in the proper/best way.

To make things work, I have had to point "gear" to http://strider.zona-m.net/?q=en/taxonomy/term/2 and "equipaggiamento" to
http://strider.zona-m.net/?q=it/taxonomy/term/11. Is this correct?

What I was expecting is that if gear corresponds to:

http://strider.zona-m.net/?q=en/taxonomy/term/2

its italian translation, that is "equipaggiamento" should have been pointed to:

http://strider.zona-m.net/?q=it/taxonomy/term/2

When I did this, however, I got empty listings in http://strider.zona-m.net/?q=it/taxonomy/term/2 and I had to rearrange
menus manually in the two languages. Is this the only way to do it, or there is a better/cleaner way, which gives same
URLs for all the translations of a category, with only the LANG part (it or en) being different?

Thanks in advance for any explanation,

Marco
