Abstract
Methods, systems and computer program products display data in a selected language. A data record formatted in a language independent markup format is received and a style sheet associated with the selected language is retrieved. The data record is formatted based on the style sheet and the formatted data record is displayed in the selected language. Data may be generated at a first data processing system that displays text in a first language and provided to a second data processing system that displays text in a second language different from the first language by generating data values at the first data processing system and incorporating the generated data values in a language independent markup document. The language independent markup document may include an identification of a style sheet that specifies how to present the data values in the second language to provide the data record.
