Hello,
Exerimenting some troubles with accents and special chars when translating from spanish to another language. I just tryed to send the params with POST and it works very good.

1.0
{txtsource.text} {String(langFromCbx.selectedItem.value)+’|'+String(langToCbx.selectedItem.value)}

And use this function to call the service. With a little trick with the param v.

private function translate():void{
if(txtsource.text==”"){
txtdest.text=”";
}
else
{
googleTransService.request.v=”1.0″;
googleTransService.send();
}
}

Hey,

Thanks for the example using the REST api, I found a library that also contained the Google Translation services, and much more AND all returned in code-friendly data objects:

Hope I could help!

Yep you right, premature analysis to docs on google .

REST is completely different from JSON.

Thanks to point me ;)

REST != JSON. REST is a network software architecture style. The format of data doesn’t need to be JSON. Some REST services use XML.
