Hi,

Not without having the page so we can see the files and figure what's going on.

There is a babelfish page example on Milonic that might help you in the setup

The spiders, at least from what I've seen, don't understand the code in the _data file, and simply leave it alone. I suspect the same thing is happening here - the translator does not see what it considers "HTML" and ignores it.

Using a list menu, when Andy completes the rewrite, would fix the problem (I've already tried it), because the list that generates the menu is standard HTML.
