Multi languages & HTML editor(s)

Do you want to display the description in english, if the non-english description is not available?

If yes
If your function get_products_description() returns the description from the DB, on the base language id specified. You can change this function behaviour in such a way, it returns english description if the non-english is not available.

Hello

thats correct. I want the english description to be taken from the db if there is no other available (in the non english).
Some if function...right?

Well what would the code be?

post the code of get_products_description()

Ohh...right, sorry :-)  

function get_products_description($product_id, $language_id) {
    global $db;
    $product = $db->Execute("select products_description
                             from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . "
                             where products_id = '" . (int)$product_id . "'
                             and language_id = '" . (int)$language_id . "'");

    return $product->fields['products_description'];
  }

Thank you...so far so good, the description shows up in the non english fields (editors).
But it don't writes into the database....i receive blank product descriptions when viewing in different than english language

>>>But it don't writes into the database....i receive blank product descriptions when viewing in different than english language

I didnt understand

Do you function other than get_products_description() to display description or using the same function everywhere?

Yes...my fault.  Before executing the "save new product", I can preview it at the new_product_preview page

This is the additional functions
