Abstract

A multi-language interfaces system includes a storage unit, a processing unit, and a language switch unit; the storage unit stores an executable code containing a variable code and multiple language packs; the processing unit is electrically connected for transmission to the storage unit to execute the executable codes; and the language switch unit is respectively electrically connected for transmission to the storage unit and the processing unit to provide a signal to the processing unit where the variable code is converted into one of those language packs.

Claims

1. A multi-language interfaces switch system, comprising:

a storage medium storing an executable code that contains a variable code, and multiple language packs, wherein text data are contained in the multiple language packs instead of the executable code;

a processor electrically connected to the storage medium for executing the executable code; and

a language switch unit, electrically connected to the storage medium and the processor, for generating and sending a signal to the processor, the processor converts the variable code into one of the language packs and the language switch unit includes a language menu for switching among multi-language interfaces,

wherein the executable code comprises a JavaScript program code generating a plurality of pop-up message boxes, and a tool is further applied to convert the JavaScript program code into a HTML document file, in which a plurality of check keys are provided on a one-to-one basis corresponding to the pop-up message boxes, each of the check keys triggers a corresponding one of the pop-up message boxes to display a corresponding message for being checked by a translator.

2. The system as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a user interface, wherein the user interface is connected to the storage medium, the processor, and the language switch unit respectively for a user to execute the user interface.

3. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the storage medium being a flash or a disk unit.

4. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the variable code is substituted by text data stored in the language pack corresponding to the signal.

5. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the executable code contains a HyperText Markup Language (HTML) program code, a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) program or combinations thereof.

6. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the language switch unit further contains a language menu to generate the signal.

7. A method for switching multi-language interfaces, comprising steps of:

preparing a storage medium stored with an executable code containing a variable code, and multiple language packs, wherein text data are contained in the multiple language packs instead of the executable code;

having a processor to execute the executable code;

generating and sending a signal via a language switch unit to the processor, wherein the language switch unit includes a language menu for switching among multi-language interfaces; and

converting the variable code into one of those language packs by the processor, wherein the executable code comprises a JavaScript program code generating a plurality of pop-up message boxes, and a tool is further applied to convert the JavaScript program code into a HTML document file, in which a plurality of check keys are provided on a one-to-one basis corresponding to the pop-up message boxes, each of the check keys triggers a corresponding one of the pop-up message boxes to display a corresponding message for being checked by a translator.

8. The method as claimed in claim 7, further comprising a step of providing a user interface, wherein the user interface is electrically connected to the storage medium, the processor, and the language switch unit respectively for providing a user to execute the user interface.

9. The method as claimed in claim 7, wherein the storage medium contains a flash or a disk unit.

10. The method as claimed in claim 7, wherein the variable code is substituted by text data stored in the language pack corresponding to the signal.

11. The method as claimed in claim 7, wherein the executable code contains a HyperText Markup Language (HTML) program code, a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) program or combinations thereof.

12. The method as claimed in claim 7, wherein the language switch unit further includes a language menu to generate the signal.
