[TYPO3-english] Multi-language workflow

[amadeo Marketing & Design - Paul Garais]

Hi list,

after checking some possible options I decided to create a userfunction for the 
"Page-not-found"-Handling. With the standard configuration it should do what my customer would like 
to have (as far as the description in the install-tool says). But it don't. So I created the 
userfunction, which you can use for this option. All the userfunction does, is looking for the next 
possible page to show, starting from the current given ID and language-ID. So the first page which 
has a translation for the same language and is not hidden/deleted will be shown (moving up in the 
pagetree from the current page). So it is basically a simple recursive function. That works fine for 
me and performance is also good, because the pagetree has a maximum of 4 levels.
