Another Possibility.

hey there ,first thanx for the ridiculously cool plugin.

i wanted to ask is it possible for the plugin to work on a dynamic data ,like changing the language of the page ,so instead of the whole page being reloaded ,the words/letters that needs changing will be changed through the plugin ,am basically after the flipping affect.

,i also posted a question similar to this on SOF Here but unfortunately so far no answers.

It is! You'd have to put in a lot of effort though.

Essentially, for every word on the page, you'll have to get its translation. Then wrap the original word in something like <span class="swap" data-lines="fromage">cheese</span>. Then just call $('.swap').dynamo_trigger().

Does that make sense?

i know you already answered that but i have an idea and hopefully it would sound good

what if we made a function that takes 2 arguments

• the class of the paragraph we want to translate like <p class="trans">some text</p>
• the dictionary file of the language we want to translate to like French.dict

and now we bind this function to a button which on click ,the plugin will then do the following

• take the text and run it through the "French.dict" file to see what needs to change.
• wrap all the text that needs changing like <span>old text</span>
• append the new data to the default attribute like <p class="trans"><span class="dynamo" data-lines="new text">old text</span></p>

and now basically each time we click on that button the plugin will just swap between the new & old data while doing its magic.

with the big text we can make the script even run through server so the user wont feel any lag or down time .

That could work. I would not build something like that into dynamo, though. Seems like code you would run on top of it.

is there a chance you could do something like that to anew branch ??? i know it will require a lot a work but sadly :( i have so little knowledge to js to do something like that ,if you know maybe some tutorial i could check that would help with that plz direct me.

Unfortunately I can't, but if you give it a shot and run into trouble I'm always happy to help.
