Question, not Issue: Getting the innerHTML of a tag for multi-language support #114
Description
Hey! Thanks for this project. Plates is flippin awesome! I really love doing dynamic html without DSL.
If there's a better place for questions rather than here please let me know.
I'm using Plates for a project I'm working on which will need to have multi-language support in the near future. My plans thus far are to use the gettext utility.
What I'd like to do is get the innerHTML of a tag identified for translation (maybe with a translate='true' attribute), do a little hacking on it to separate the innerHTML into gettext keys, and replace the innerHTML with the translated innerHTML.
I haven't seen a way to get the innerHTML of an element with plates thus far. So, my plans are to modify use(function) to return the innerHTML of the tag specified.
I'm curious:
Am I missing something? I'm very new to this project and there may be a way to do what I want that I haven't seen yet.
If this feature isn't included in plates, do you (the designers/writters of Plates) think that incorporating this feature into use is the best option? If not, please feel free to make suggestions!
