For some reason the 'Home' is not translating in the $breadcrumbs trail.

Installed Drupal 6.17 in English, and added the Dutch translation later following the instructions maybe I overlooked something?). Dutch is set as the main language of the site. English is turned off.

My bad. Typo in the code. Correction and tested:

  <?php if ($breadcrumb && $breadcrumb != '<div class="breadcrumb"></div>'): 

// Look for and replace the the word 'Home' with the word in your language. Substitute the 'Home_in_your_language' with the native language word for 'Home' to do so.

$pattern = "/Home/";
$breadcrumb = preg_replace($pattern, 'Home_in_your_language', $breadcrumb);

print '<div id="breadcrumb">'.$breadcrumb.'</div>'; 
            else: print '<div id="breadcrumb"><a href="' . $front_page . '">Home_in_your_language</a></div>'; 
            endif; ?>

There isn't a good dutch translaton for Home? Or do you want to call it '(t)huis' or something like that?

Better have a discussion about this in at drupal.nl. There are more eyes overthere. There might also be an old discussion about this in the translation forums at drupal.nl. I think to remember that in the 4.7 days there was a different translation for 'front' which was changed after discussion.

If you want to look for an alternative, check a lot of Dutch sites and see what is used.

I was thinking something like 'Voorpagina' for example.

Did a search in the Dutch forums from what I can tell it may be a translation or strings problem.
For some people 'Home' in the menu is translated to 'Start'. So there is something going on with the strings possibly.

See:
http://drupal.nl/forum/home-pagina-wordt-automatichs-start-in-menu-balk

The issue occuring around 2008 (in Drupal 5).

Recommend people talk about the translating issue in the Drupal.nl forum for now?

There should be an easy way to change it though, regardless of language, or what one wants to set the word too.
