[Translators] lang-switch for the main page

[M. T.]

Hi, VLC folks!

I just build a small switcher and put it on a clone-page on my web space.
I'm not a designer, so I had problem to find the right place for this switch.
So, if someone here have a better solution than please comment.
This is the fist test so some things can change.

Please have a look and give a feedback how do you like it
or give some suggestions to make it better.

Thanks!

+1, I like the drop down menu idea.

Hi,

I have a small suggestion for the current and ugly language change on the bottom of the mail page.
I put all this links into a nicer drop down menu and leave the language codes, maybe it would be
better to write the language names in full. But I can't decide if in english or the native name.
And it would be better to place this switch at the top of this page.

Here is my html code:
---------------------------
        <div>
            <div class="footerHeading">Language:</div>
    <form action="select">            
    <select name="menu" onchange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value)">

    </select></form>
         </div>
------------------------------------------------------

This should replace the old links and all locale pages should get this update
but the value "selected" should be placed to the right selected language.

Thanks for a feedback!
Michi
