Simple Module - MVC 1.5.0.17 - localization problem

[tenuis]

I'm developping a prestashop module to create a new page at a given URL.

I'm quite new to 1.5 development but have found an interesting french tutorial here : http://bit.ly/N1RdKh

 

I wanted to adapt it to display a simple tpl. It's working well, but I have a problem with localization.

Whenever I change language from this particular page, id_lang changes in URL, but nothing moves on the whole page.

If I load another page (like home for example) and change the language then go back to my new page, it's perfectly translated.

 

My module's structure :

 

Content :

 

pagestatic/pagestatic.php

<?php
class PageStatic extends Module {

public function __construct() {

 $this->name   = 'pagestatic';
 $this->tab	= 'pagestatic';
 $this->version   = 0.1;
 $this->author   = 'Tenuis';
 $this->displayName  = $this->l('Static Pages');
 $this->description  = $this->l('Additionnal page');

 parent :: __construct();


}

public function install() {
 return parent::install();
}


}

 

pagestatic/controllers/front/static.php

<?php
class PageStaticStaticModuleFrontController extends ModuleFrontController {

public function initContent() {

 parent::initContent();

 $page = Tools::getValue('page');
 $lang = Tools::getValue('id_lang');
 $cookielang = $this->context->cookie->id_lang;


 $this->context->smarty->assign('page', $page);
 $this->context->smarty->assign('lang', $lang);
 $this->context->smarty->assign('cookielang', $cookielang);

 $this->setTemplate('page.tpl');

}

}

 

pagestatic/views/templates/front/page.tpl

requested page = {$page}<br />
url language = {$lang} <br />
cookie language = {$cookielang} <br />
{l s='Test EN' mod='pagestatic'}

 

Link to my page :

<a href="{$link->getModuleLink('pagestatic', 'static', ['page' => 'test'])}">test page</a>

 

Sends me here :

index.php?controller=static&page=test&fc=module&module=pagestatic&id_lang=1

 

My page displays :

requested page = test
url language = 1
cookie language = 1
Test EN

 

When I change my language to french, url changes to id_lang=4, but cookie language stays at 1 and my "Test EN" stays as it is (and nothing on the page is translated as it should be).

 

However, when my language is changed outside of this page and I come back here, url AND cookie are 4 and "Test EN" becomes "Test FR".

 

I'd really appreciate your help, thanks !
