Multi language pages using visualforce

I had 2 languages with links "en" and "french" . Using custom labels i had created custom label with 2 languages. when i click french the words in visual force  page must change into french language and when i click on "En" the same french text must change into English. 
how can i achieve??

You need to use the Language attribute on the apex:Page tab
  
<apex:page language="{!$CurrentPage.parameters.lang}">

replace the Lang parameter with whatever you are using to send the language.

You will need to translate the page and split it into different sections for English and French. Then create a variable to determine which language it is displaying and create onclick action methods to rerender the page depending on which label you click.

Something like this.

Visualforce page 
<apex:page id="thepage" controller="PageController">
	<apex:form id="theform">
		<apex:commandlink action="{!changeEnglish}" rerender="theform" value="English"/>
		<apex:commandlink action="{!changeFrench}" rerender="theform" value="French"/>
		<apex:outputpanel rendered="{!!isFrench}">
		English words
		</apex:outputpanel>
		<apex:outputpanel rendered="{!isFrench}">
		mots français
		</apex:outputpanel>		
	</apex:form>
</apex:page>

Apex Class
  
public with sharing class PageController {
public boolean isFrench {get;set;}

public void changeFrench(){
	isFrench = true;
}

public void changeEnglish(){
	isFrench = false;
}

}

Hi sforce

can i use same in case of custom labels?? 
swasswas
I had used this tag:

 <apex:outputLabel value="{!$Label.test}" rendered="true"/>

but i am not getting translation??
mjohnson-TICmjohnson-TIC
This should work if you want Salesforce to do the translation for you.

Visualforce Page
  
<apex:page id="thepage" controller="PageController" language="{!IF(ISNULL(language),'en_US',language)}">
	<apex:form id="theform">
		<apex:actionfunction name="changeEnglish" action="{!changeEnglish}" rerender="thepage"/>
		<apex:actionfunction name="changeFrench" action="{!changeFrench}" rerender="thepage"/>
		<apex:outputLabel value="{!$Label.french}" rendered="true" onclick="changeEnglish();"/>
		<apex:outputLabel value="{!$Label.english}" rendered="true" onclick="changeFrench();"/>
		Text of page here
	</apex:form>
</apex:page>

Apex Class
  
public with sharing class PageController {
public string language {get;set;}

public void changeFrench(){
	language = "fr";
}

public void changeEnglish(){
	language = "en_US";
}

}
