Multilingual site: alternatives to gettext ?

[PatRoy]

Hello again,

So, after messing around with gettext, and having found the solution to my previous post (https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/310383-gettext-for-multilangual-not-working-for-me/), I've come to the conclusion that I need to use something else than gettext in order to make my site multilingual.

 

Problem I have with gettext is that I absolutely need to have my desired languages (i.e. fr_FR, nl_NL, etc) installed on my server's system (in my case, a NAS for now). I can see which locales I have on my server with 'locale -a'. I am in no way able to install new locales on my NAS. It's too limited... too much locked down. 

So, I'm looking for an alternative to gettext. Any suggestions for me perhaps ?

Thanks for any advice.
