Hi, Rob,

I tried to introduce your component BookLibrary for Joomla 1.5 to Chinese Joomla users. But they say, BookLibrary has NO support for amazon.cn website, they can’t fetch book data in Chinese language with BookLibrary component.

You know, there is a website amazon.cn that publishes book information in Chinese language.

So, I suggest you add this website to the list for fetching book data. Because China has the biggest internet market in the world, and Chinese Joomla users group are growing larger and larger. I think you will not skip this market, right?

In addition, I tried to add Chinese language to the "language" option list, but failed. Hope you also add following strings into the language file of BookLibrary:

DEFINE('_BOOKLIBRARY_LANGUAGE_CHS', 'Simplified Chinese';
DEFINE('_BOOKLIBRARY_LANGUAGE_CHT', 'Traditional Chinese';

Hi,

Thank you for yours interest to ours component.

I am sorry but we can't add Chinese support to ours products.
We will be very like use amazon.ch in BookLibrary or MediaLibrary but amazon not give API for Chinese
Please go to developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/....jspa?externalID=627
and check "Service Endpoints"

Amazon and so BookLibrary and MediaLibrary now support only so domain: amazonaws.ca, amazonaws.com, amazonaws.fr, amazonaws.de, amazonaws.jp, amazonaws.co.uk

Also because Ours components not have translation to Chinese - we not see why add Chinese language define constant to ours files

Thanks,

In BookLibrary you will can find file admin.booklibrary.class.others.php

in it exist function getLanguageArray
you need add to it some like that:

Code:


array_push($retVal, array("Chinese1","Simplified Chinese"));

array_push($retVal, array("Chinese2", "Traditional Chinese"));

Thank you !

I am trying to contact amazon.com to request a new API for amazon.cn website.

I just noticed that, I can login in amazon.cn with my amazon.com account. I think they may have something in common.

Do you think it is possible to request such an API for amazon.cn ?

I hope you will join me and request such a feature together. If one day amazon.com offered such a thing, I am sure your components will be welcomed in China.

Thanks.
