Subject: foreign language translation software


| Good morning everyone.  I have a question about whether there are
| products which can translate web pages into a foreign language, say
| French, Spanish or German, etc.   I have students in several schools who
| are participating in the ThinkQuest Jr. contest this year, and one thing
| I would love to offer to them is how to use translation software to give
| their pages a wider appeal. 
| 
| I want good software, and up to a point, we can purchase a reliable
| product rather than be limited to funky shareware.  I think we can go as
| high as several hundred dollars, but I'm not sure at this point.  I'm
| still fact finding. The product we buy has to be good quality, because
| we will have no one available to "grammar check" the wording in the
| other languages.  
| 
| Are there any of you who have experience with good products?  If so,
| what are they?
| 
| TIA
|
