Introduction ------------------ We can easily have a multilingual site if we put a "lang" parameter that comes via GET. For example:
```php

 ```php

'urlManager'=>array(
'urlFormat'=>'path',

- http://www.oligalma.com/en/tutorials downloads (English) - http://www.oligalma.com/es/tutorials  (Spanish)
 
- http://www.oligalma.com/en/services  (English)
 
- http://www.oligalma.com/es/services downloads (Spanish)

- http://www.oligalma.com/en/services (English)
 
- http://www.oligalma.com/es/serviciodescargas (Spanish)

'showScriptName'=>false,
'rules'=>array(
