Normally translation is not done dynamically. All content are translated manually and put into deployment, and the runtime system will determine dynamically which version to serve based on user environments.

There are many ways to achieve this, depending on how you would like to implement it.

Easiest way is to do this in Apache, if you are just serving static HTML files. Just name the different language versions of the files with different extension suffices. This is called content negotiation in Apache. The authoritative coverage is in the official documentation, but you can find easier articles on the web:

Content Negotiation - Apache HTTP Server

Otherwise, if your content is generated by some server-side environment such as PHP, CGI (Perl, Python ...), Java etc. then you will need to adopt mechanisms specific to the environment for supporting internationalization. Many development frameworks today support internationalization in some ways. Otherwise, you are always free to implement your own.

upsstats.cgi

UPSSTATS.CGI(8) 						    NUT Manual							   UPSSTATS.CGI(8)

NAME

       upsstats.cgi - Web-based UPS status viewer

SYNOPSIS

       upsstats.cgi

	   Note
	   As a CGI program, this should be invoked through your web server. If you run it from the command line, it will either complain about
	   unauthorized access or spew a bunch of HTML at you.

DESCRIPTION

       upsstats.cgi uses template files to build web pages containing status information from UPS hardware. It can repeat sections of those
       template files to monitor several UPSes simultaneously, or focus on a single UPS.

       These templates can also include references to upsimage.cgi(8) for graphical displays of battery charge levels, voltage readings, and the
       UPS load.

ACCESS CONTROL

       upsstats will only talk to upsd(8) servers that have been defined in your hosts.conf(5). If it complains that "Access to that host is not
       authorized", check that file first.

TEMPLATES

       The web page that is displayed is actually a template containing commands to upsstats which are replaced by status information. The default
       file used for the overview is upsstats.html.

       When monitoring a single UPS, the file displayed is upsstats-single.html.

       The format of these files, including the possible commands, is documented in upsstats.html(5).

FILES

       hosts.conf(5), upsstats.html(5), upsstats-single.html
