Summary: Trying to modify language file, fails for "Title"

Initial Comment:
I am using the English language file to 'alter' the names of fields and to supply examples of field entries.  This has been working just fine up to now.

I have just tried to change the field "Title" into "Date"  for display in the Browse page.  Nothing changes.
I have altered the name of the "Listing Title" on a new ad, and that works just fine.

I can't seem to get "Title" to change.
Any ideas?
Rob

More Info - Posted this on phpwsforums.com

I have run into a strange problem in the language module....The word
"Title" was defined as "Title" in 5 seperate module language files, one of
which was Classifieds.

Changing "Title" to "Date" in Classifieds Language file made no difference
until I deleted all other instances of "Title" in the language for the
other 4 modules.

That fixed the problem in Classifieds, but now Title in the other modules
is Date, argh!

Re-importing the language for one of the other modules, changed Title back
to Title, but now the Classifieds is no longer "Date" but now is Title
again!

Even though there are 2 Title entries in the language, with different
modules listed for them, they all translate the same!

Is this a bug, or do I not understand what it should be doing.

I would expect the language module to translate "Title" as "Date" in the
Classifieds module, and as "Title" in the Contacts module.

Anyone have any ideas?

Hi Rob,

I've looked through my mod to be sure that all language is in actual
language statements and not as plain text (that would be a bug) and I
believe it is all correct, so, I'm not going to accept this bug report and
will close it.

That said, the language module can be a little strange. depending on your
browser, you may have to log out and in and out a few times, or even
completely close your browser and start fresh to see some language changes.
Also, if you don't have any data yet, you might be as well off to
un-install the mod, change the language file, then re-install it. To be
honest, this question might be best answered at phpwsforums.com ;-)

I have also tried to change the words "Contact", "Description", and
"Actions" by adding a "-" into the middle of the word.  After loading the
language file, Title and Description did not change, but Contact and
Actions showed up with the - in the middle.

This is really and odd one.
