PO method is widely used in translation, the same thing used by your Gmail, Friendster, and many other web-based application. To do the translation, we will send you a file with all the words extracted. You will then open the file with a program called POedit. POedit present you the word side by side, easier for you to do the translation. When save, it generates a copy of PO file in binary format which we will have to just insert into the website and it will work perfectly!
