Abstract: A method and system for a translation manager system are described. The translation manager system allows a web translation application to insert the proper translations into web pages generated by the translation manager system. The translation manager system properly identifies how a page is reached by the user, as well as where in the page the user has selected to make their suggestion. The translation manager system uses key-locations to identify different areas where the user may make a suggestion and the web page may include multiple key-locations.
