This is not just Overture.com that is doing this. It is appearing across
the industry on web sites so I am fairly certain that there is a way to do
this that does NOT involve creating pages for each language. Any other
ideas?
PS.. I 'could' be wrong about this, but I just have a gut feeling that there
is some type of resource that I am missing.
Thanks,
