 * Hi,
 * I am trying to build a multi-lingual blog but i’ve added some code and created
   a small plugin for it (Will release when final) but I need to know how can I 
   get the following gettext’d so it can be translated into other languages. I am
   using language switch plugin for my multi-lingual plugin.
 * $html_output = ‘
    - 
    - ‘;
    - For those who have never used language switcher before all you do is wrang
      english content in [lang_en]english content[/lang_en] and say french content
      in [lang_fr]French Content[/lang_fr] what’s happening is the code i pasted
      above is not translating and the [lang_xx] is being displayed because my line
      is not “filtered”.
    - Any tips are helpful.
    - Thanks
    - Trevor

 * ahh! i forgot to wrap code properly. here is the line of code again:
 * `$html_output = '<li><a href="' . $external->post_content . '">' . $external-
   >post_title . '</a></li>';`
