how to make echo get_i18n_link($slug) work ?

[Felix]

Hi,

To have a multilanguage menu in a site is by using:

<?php get_i18n_navigation(); ?>

However, I need to make a customized menu.

One way to make your own customized menu is by using:

 get_i18n_link($slug)
 
Example:

<ul>
<li><?php get_i18n_link(index); ?></li>
<li><?php get_i18n_link(about); ?></li>
<li><?php get_i18n_link(contact); ?></li>
</ul>

But in my case what I really need is this:

<?php
echo '<ul>';
echo '<li>' . get_i18n_link(about) . '</li>';
....
echo '</ul>';
?>

The problem here is that the part: echo get_i18n_link(about) does not work correctly
and outputs a 1

Is there a parameter to make echo get_i18n_link(about) work correctly

like echo get_i18n_link(about, false) or something like that ?
