cool  ... 

in the meantime I have been coding again. The challenge was to get graphical
stuff working with lang ... I have now created the necessary tags, but a
problem remains ... 

I endup with things like this:

<IMG SRC="[LANG_DE:german.gif:][LANG_FR:french.gif:]">

which is exactly what I want to go into the slicer. Unfortunately the
the fixhtml happens before this, so it wont be able to
set the WITH and HEIGHT tags on this kind of image ..

would it be possible to make the exit filter work with the slicer ? the exit
filter should be aplied to the slicer output files ... then I could add
just another pass of the html fixer at the and and everything would be fine
...


cheers
