Magento 1.9 - Translate text in php file

Question

How I can translate this text in a php file, I want to translate $message

  if (!$this->_getSession()->getNoCartRedirect(true)) {
            if (!$cart->getQuote()->getHasError()) {
                $notifysymbol = "<img src='".Mage::getBaseUrl(Mage_Core_Model_Store::URL_TYPE_MEDIA)."/noticeicons/1489953827_warning.png' >";
                $message = $this->__('<div class="notit"><span class="notification-symbol">%s</span><div class="rowt2"> <span class="added_cart">Product added to cart</span><br/><span class="small-text"> Go to the checkout to complete your purchase or add more products</span></div></div>',$notifysymbol);
                $this->_getSession()->addSuccess($message);
            }
            $this->_goBack();
        }

and this is the text in the Custom field:

<div class="notit"><span class="notification-symbol">%s</span><div class="rowt2"> <span class="added_cart">Product added to cart</span><br/><span class="small-text"> Go to the checkout to complete your purchase or add more products</span></div></div>

The text is the core_translate table too

Answer 1

The $message is already translatable, because you use $this->__() to generate it. So, you can enable Inline Translation to translate it.

However, it is not best practise to use HTML code inside a translatable string. Imagine you string will some time be changed by your client - this will surely result in errors when HTML code needs to be changed. I would suggest the following solution:

<?php
    $headline = $this->__('Product added to cart');
    $text = $this->__('Go to the checkout to complete your purchase or add more products');
    $message = $this->__('<div class="notit"><span class="notification-symbol">%s</span><div class="rowt2"> <span class="added_cart">%s</span><br/><span class="small-text">%s</span></div></div>', $notifysymbol, $headline, $text);

Answer 2

I found the same question on StackOverflow. Try this out:

One argument, in one place:

Mage::helper('module')->__('Hi %s, there is an error', $name);

Two arguments, in two places:

Mage::helper('module')->__('Hi %s, there is an error with code %s', $name, $code);

One argument, in two places:

Mage::helper('module')->__('Hi %1$s, there is an error. Your name is %1$s', $name);

Two arguments, swapping places:

// Template or block file
Mage::helper('module')->__('Hi %1$s %2$s, there is an error', $firstname, $lastname);

// CSV translation
"Hi %1$s %2$s, there is an error", "%2$s, %1$s received an error"
