[Chameleon] language change

[Paul Spencer]

Debbie,

there is a small problem in the template parser that affects the 
language widget, it can be resolved by adding a space at the end of the 
widget definition.  Perhaps this is your problem?

<cwc2 type="Language" >
                      ^  <- space here

Cheers,

Paul
