Translate-tab does not work when not using the $content variable

Hi,

I use a custom built page-[node].tpl.php for my site that does not use the $content var to include information from the node, but instead uses a construction like print $node->content['body']['#value'];

When I click the 'translate'-tab on the page, the page views not as it is meant to be, and the interface with the list of languages is nowhere to be found. I found out that when I do include the $content variable, the list with translations suddenly appears. Is there another way to include the interface to translate without including everything that comes with $content?

I do not know if this is a bug or if I just need some support, but I can imagine that others are experiencing the same problem. That is why I posted it here.

Thanks!
Sander
