1945541 - Translating the web page doesn't translate the popup

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1845783

(Firefox :: Translations, defect)

Description

[Mike Kaply [:mkaply]]

If you navigate to this page:

https://produkte.web.de/browser/firefox/

You'll get a popup with German.

If you click the translate button, it translates the page behind the popup but not the popup itself.

Hi Mike,

Thank you for filing this!

This is a case where the popup is implemented within an iframe, which we don't support translating yet.

<iframe class="permission-core-iframe" ... >

I'm hoping that the Translations team will be able to get to this one soon, since this is a pain point that has come up more than once.

Interestingly, at the time of writing this, Google Chrome doesn't translate the iframe content either.
