move translation links to top of node

Involved some php and css hackery, but the following code in page.tpl.php should render your language link for the language not currenlty active (IE, when viewing english, only french link appears). Note you'll probably have to remove the comment lines and such.

<?php
	// this is copy&paste from locale_block in locale.module
	$languages = language_list('enabled');
	$links = array();
	foreach ($languages[1] as $language) {
	if ($language->language != $current) {
	$links[$language->language] = array(
	'href' => $_GET['q'],<br />
	'title' => $language->native,
	'language' => $language,
	'attributes' => array('class' => 'language-link'),
	);
	}
	}
       
	// this adds the real paths, i.e. if we are on a german page,
	// the british flag will point to en/english_alias instead of
	// en/node_with_german_content
	translation_translation_link_alter($links, $_GET['q']);
       
	// This one adds extended languages, i.e. those that are not enabled.
	// Disable if you want only flags for enabled languages.
	i18n_translation_link_alter($links, $_GET['q']);
       
	// now add or replace text links by flags, according to your i18n settings.
	if (function_exists('languageicons_translation_link_alter'))
	languageicons_translation_link_alter($links, $_GET['q']);
       
	// Or do your own stuff, e.g. set the flags and no lang names,
	// no matter what the i18n icon settings say.
	//if ($icon = theme('languageicons_icon', $language, NULL)) {
	// $links[$language->language]['title'] = theme('languageicons_place', $link['title'], $icon);
	// $links[$language->language]['html'] = TRUE;
	//}
       
	// remove the current language again. We cannot do that
	// earlier because i18n_translation_link_alter would add it
	// again, thinking it was an extendeg language because it
	// was not yet contained in $links. If you don't use
	// i18n_translation_link_alter, you can also make a case distinction
	// in the foreach loop
	$current = i18n_get_lang();
	unset($links[$current]);
       
	// format as you like, e.g.
	echo theme('links', $links, array());
