openSUSE 11.1 Count Down & Localization

openSUSE 11.1 planned to be launched in December 2008. As a reminder, countdown applet has been updated to reflect the 11.1 version.  From now on, it is also contains localization version based on browser preferences as described on Pascal Bleser blog post.

According to Pascal, openSUSE countdown will automatically detected language preference on browser and display related localization. Beside this method, we could also take another way, by using countdown image directly. As an example, I could used direct count down for Indonesian version by adding an “id” sufix as shown below :

<a href="http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_11.1"> <img src="http://counter.opensuse.org/11.1/medium.id" alt="" /> </a>

There is 3 different format for count down : large, medium and small.

1. Large version

   <a href="http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_11.1"> <img src="http://counter.opensuse.org/11.1/large.id" alt="" /> </a>
   

2. Medium version

   <a href="http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_11.1"> <img src="http://counter.opensuse.org/11.1/medium.id" alt="" /> </a>
   

3. Small version

   <a href="http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_11.1"> <img src="http://counter.opensuse.org/11.1/small.id" alt="" /> </a>
