Language spec in KM doc iView?

Question

Hi,
How to specify the language of a KM document iView.
I have two different set of HTML pages -One for English and one for French.
English is stored in En directory and French in Fr directory.
My requirement is to select the directory dynamically- that means if the user is logged in French it should point to the French folder and if the user is logged in English, it shoudl retrieve files from the En directory.
How is this possible.
Thanks in advance.

Good, its possible.
Now tell me:
How have you arranged viewing of KM document iViews in your portal. Are they directly under a role?
Or do you have a link with navigation: say Click here to access the documents: which will then lead you the documents?
If its the latter you would probably have something like this right:
<a href = "#" >Click here</a>
with an onClick = "EPCM.doNavigate(.............../myKMDoc)
What you would need to do is get this area:
.............../myKMDoc
from a Resource Bundle (do read about it)
in myProps_en.properties you'd have:
PathToFile= .............../myKMDocEN
in myProps_fr.properties you'd have:
PathToFile= .............../myKMDocFR
where myKMDocEN and myKMDocFR are the 2 different KM Document iViews that you'd need to create one pointing to the English file and the other to te french one.
When the locale is resolved at runtime it'll automatically pick up the necessary path and hence the necessary iview.
