	$text['description-conference-center']['en-us'] = 'Conference Center is used to setup one or more conference rooms with a name, extension number, a required pin number length, and a description.';
	$text['description-conference-center']['pt-pt'] = ;

	$text['label-name']['en-us'] = 'Name';
	$text['label-name']['pt-pt'] = ;

	$text['label-extension']['en-us'] = 'Extension';
	$text['label-extension']['pt-pt'] = ;

	$text['label-delete']['en-us'] = 'Delete';
	$text['label-delete']['pt-pt'] = ;

	$text['label-edit']['en-us'] = 'Edit';
	$text['label-edit']['pt-pt'] = ;

	$text['button-view']['en-us'] = 'View';
	$text['button-view']['pt-pt'] = ;

	$text['button-back']['en-us'] = 'Back';
	$text['button-back']['pt-pt'] = 'Voltar';

	$text['confirm-update']['en-us'] = 'Update Complete';
	$text['confirm-update']['pt-pt'] = 'Actualização Completa';

	$text['confirm-delete']['en-us'] = 'Do you really want to delete this?';
	$text['confirm-delete']['pt-pt'] = ;

	$text['button-add']['en-us'] = 'Add';
	$text['button-add']['pt-pt'] = ;

	$text['button-save']['en-us'] = 'Save';
	$text['button-save']['pt-pt'] = 'Guardar';

?>

To use inside the code on each page that displays text. Place the following code at the top just after the permision_exists

//add multi-lingual support
	require_once "app_languages.php";
	foreach($text as $key => $value) {
		$text[$key] = $value[$_SESSION['domain']['language']['code']];
	}

To place a word, phrase or sentence it would be used in the code like the following example.

echo "<td align='left' width='30%' nowrap='nowrap'>".$text['title-conference-centers']."</td>\n";

An additional example.

echo "	<tr>\n";
echo "		<td align='left' colspan='2'>\n";
echo "			".$text['description-conference-centers']."\n";
echo "		</td>\n";
echo "	</tr>\n";
echo "</table>\n";
