enzaD	I see hooks and other options for generating a language switcher which you customize in the settings for the language. However I need to create a language switcher which is way more custom than those options allow. I cannot find anything in the PHP API for getting the current url in another language. This should be able to work for pages, posts, archives, etc. With that function, I can probably generate the custom switcher I need to impliment.
