so here is a an example:

i have a mail script that sends out a notification that is base on variables collected by the Form.

var conLegal = current.variables.conference_continuing_legal_education.getDisplayValue();

this Var conLegal is a Select box with 2 items:

Let say they in english on the form:

Black

White

the French translations using the Edit Translations on the form is:
Noir

Blanc

How will i get those to appear on the email that is sent. would i use:

template.print(gs.getMessage(conLegal));

to see the french translations if the user profile is French that is filling out the form?
