Here is a patch for the [[plugins/meta]] plugin. It adds the possibility to define the language
-used for a page, with \[[meta lang="ja"]]
+used for a page, with \[[!meta lang="ja"]]
It doesn't insert the langage information in the xhtml meta elements, but defines a LANG
variable to use in the templates, for example with
>>>> it from the `meta` directive.

+
+ <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
+ <TMPL_IF NAME="LANG">lang="<TMPL_VAR LANG>" xml:lang="<TMPL_VAR LANG>"</TMPL_IF>>
+
+> Now it just needs to be finished up.. --[[Joey]]
