[TYPO3-english] Only Default language and no alternate language

[arun nair]

Hello all,
 
I just inherited a website run on typo3 and i have to make changes to it. The one place i got stuck is the display of the language in alternate language. i read most of the forums and i still am not able to get the solution to my problem.
 
The website has 2 languages- german(default) and English. The concerned parts of code are as under:-
 
#Config
config.admPanel = 1
config.language = de
config{
  ###E-Mail Adresse ohne @###
  spamProtectEmailAddresses = 2
  spamProtectEmailAddresses_atSubst = (at)
  ###XHTML###
  doctype = xhtml_trans
  xhtml_cleaning = all
  htmlTag_langKey = de
  removeDefaultJS = external
  inlineStyle2TempFile = 1
  ###index search###
  index_enable=1
  index_externals = 1
  linkVars = L
  sys_language_uid = 0
  
}

 
temp.SPRACHE = TEXT
temp.SPRACHE {
                      field = uid
                      wrap = <a href="index.php?id=|&L=1">English</a>
                      }
 
[globalVar = GP:L=1]
   config.sys_language_uid = 1
   config.language = en
   temp.SPRACHE.wrap = <a href="index.php?id=|&L=0">Deutsch</a>
   temp.KLICKPFAD.10.value = &nbsp You are here:&nbsp;
[global]
 
temp.Sprache is used to generate the language selector on the page.
 
Even in the Page mode, when i open the english content it opens in the german page. I cant figure out why.
 
any help will be appreciated.
 
Regards,
arun
