I like this translation much better then the Bablefish version I posted last year. But like others I'm having the same IE problem. Works fine with Firefox but a blank page with IE. I can see it downloading files but once its finished its just blank. Any ideals???

[Digital Jedi]

I'm not sure whats going on. When are you getting the blank page exactly?

[Scalemotorcars]

Can someone else try this and see if its working with another computer.

All I get is a blank, black page with the translation. Ive reset all my permissions to default and Ive checked the white list. All that seems fine. Also I tried it on the demo with IE and its working fine so this must me a conflict of some sort with google and my site.

Anyone care to take a crack at it???

I think I see a couple of problems. For one, the link you sent was in Threaded Mode, which I presume is what you have set as the default. Initially, all I saw was the Thread tree and no posts.

The other thing I noticed is that once I'd clicked a few pages the forums where closed off to me. I'm guessing this will disrupt what Google can read as well.

There may be other reasons, but those are the ones that jump out at me.

[Scalemotorcars]

Well nuts. I didn't see that. Hold up Ill try and tweak that and see what happens.

[Scalemotorcars]

I changed the display setting and turned off this hack.

But its still doing the same thing.

[Scalemotorcars]

Also added .translate.google.com to the VB whitelist but I dont think thats it either.

I tried translating your site directly from Google's Language Tools page, and all your pages are having the same problem. Not even the index or the CMPS page will reproduce any content. This one has got me. I can't imagine why it would come out blank, unless maybe Google is still being blocked somehow.

[Scalemotorcars]

What about the Privacy policy. I just noticed that at the bottom of the translation page theres a (privacy policy) Icon thats showing blocked cookies. Anyone know how to fix that?

[Scalemotorcars]

Found something with that privacy that may narrow it down.

Ive got a flash header and used objectswap.js to get around having to activate it. Well I removed that in the (headinclude) and now the translator shows my header but nothing else. 2 other items that are showing blocked are the (clientscript/vbulletin_global.js) and (clientscript/vbulletin_menu.js) but these appear to be be VB code and I don't want to remove those without further feedback. Anyone???
