Each page on the French site includes controls which allow the user to switch between French and English content. Until the dept provides the French content, the dept has asked to display the English and remove the language switching controls. I had done that this way: The graphical_elements.css file includes a definition for #language_div in which one can set the visibility to hidden or display to none. After confirming with Clifton, I then did it this way: The settings.php file includes a variable $language_control which sets style='display:none;' on the #language_div. Right now the settings.php file sets $language_control to "off" and the code in the css file is commented.
