• Globalize2 v0.1.1 with this patches on top

I18n Multi Locales Form usage

Just add the option :locale => YOUR_LOCALE to your text_field.

# in views
<%= f.text_field :title, { :locale => :'fr' } %>

# Generated
<input type="text" lang="fr" value="VALUE_TRANSLATED" size="30" name="page[title][en]" id="page_title_en"/>

You can also use the view helper multi_locales to generate your fields

# in views
<% multi_locales(I18n.available_locales) do |locale| %>
  <%= f.label :title, nil, {:locale => locale} %>
  <%= f.text_field :title, {:locale => locale} %>
  <%= f.text_area :body, {:locale => locale} %>
<% end %>

# Generated
<ul class="nav locales">
  <li class="en"><a href="#"><span class="name">English</span></a></li>
  <li class="fr"><a href="#"><span class="name">Français</span></a></li>
</ul>
<div class="multi_locales">
  <div class="locale en">
    <label for="post_title_en">Title</label>
    <input id="post_title_en" lang="en" name="post[title][en]" size="30" type="text" value="Title" />
    <textarea name="post[body][en]" id="post_body_en" rows="20" lang="en" cols="40"></textarea>
  </div>
  <div class="locale fr">
    <label for="post_title_fr">Title</label>
    <input id="post_title_fr" lang="fr" name="post[title][fr]" size="30" type="text" value="Title" />
    <textarea name="post[body][fr]" id="post_body_fr" rows="20" lang="fr" cols="40"></textarea>
  </div>
