[opencms-dev] Multilanguage in a html page - OpenCMS 6.2.1

[spyros]

This works with siblings. You have to create a sibling of your page, for the 
second language. Then set the locale property to "en" for the main page and 
"de" for the sibling.
Viewing the page should show the english version, and viewing the sibling 
should show the german.
Alternatively, adding "?__locale=de" to your mainpage url should also 
produce the german.
