Having some mild experience with this subject, let me make a couple of suggestions. There are several different 'programmatic' tools that will do machine translations -- although the output can be quite rough. These tools generally have ways to 'refine' the output over time as long as your subject matter isn't wildly different at each iteration. An Internet search on translation should get you references to these. If your source is very different every time, I would suggest human translation instead. It can be costly, but the quality is much better. Translation firms are also frequently familiar with SGML as a source as many of their long-term customers have been using SGML for quite a while. They should now be able to handle XML as a source. My one suggestion is this: give them your source XML in one language and have them _output_ the same XML with the translated content. Then, use XSLT to transform the XML (in each specific language) into multiple HTML output files. It's much easier to manage.
