It is a nice tool, and accurate for straight html pages
Unfortunately, it does not transfer some info that is included info
(bablefish doesn=92t either, though I find it disturbing) when sent in a =
url,
information reading like this

http://domain.com/page.php?info=3D123&moreinfo=3Dabc

it wont translate that to my script so that I can pull the requested
information from my database.

Not sure why it wont work, neither altavista's bablefish, nor yours does

Subject: Company Translation Tool

Hi All,

=20

I'm new to this community and was hoping for a bit of help with
something we have been working on for a while now. We are a translation
company and offer a free translation tool on the website. Recently we
started offering webmasters the option of being able to have their pages
translated by visitors. This can be done by adding a graphic to each
page they want to offer it, downloading a program which puts code on
automatically or by getting the code and adding themselves.

We expected a fair take up of the service as it is free. We have had
nearly 2000 downloads of the program, and about 50,000 visitors to that
section of the site. Unfortunately however the actual usage seems to be
about 30 sites. I can only therefore assume that there is something
wrong with the offering, and unfortunately can come up with no good
reason.

I was hoping that people here might be prepared to have a look at it and
let me have your thoughts on improvements or general reasons why it
isn't being used. We've been sat racking our brains for weeks and can't
come up with anything. Hopefully a fresh perspective from people on the
cutting edge might help. The address of the offering in question is:

I would greatly appreciate any advice that anybody could give before I
go grey and bald :-)

Sorry for posting on here but I am stuck for ideas. I would really
appreciate any help you guys could give me.
