Drupal：关于t（）函数的问题

Question

I've added the following text in the t() function in page.tpl.php page.

<?php echo t('Some random text to translate.'); ?>

Now when I go to admin/build/translate/search to translate the string drupal cannot find it.

I've refreshed all caches, and also the "Refresh" tab in internationalization module.

thanks

The t() function , to save on performance for single-language sites, won't store the string in the database until it is requested from another language. View the page in one of the non-default languages in order to populate the database (t() calls locale() to do this ), thus making the string available for translation.
