I have enable Internationalitation for my site. I have an page in my site named WebBar.txt which had the following content

---++++ %MAKETEXT{"INTRANET"}%
   * [[ArticleBook][%MAKETEXT{"Article Book"}%]]
   * [[SFPriceList][%MAKETEXT{"Price List"}%]] 
   * [[SFDesign][%MAKETEXT{"Design"}%]] 
   * [[SFIT][%MAKETEXT{"IT"}%]] 
   * [[SFHumanResources][%MAKETEXT{"Human Resources"}%]] 
   * [[SFMisCellaneous][%MAKETEXT{"Miscellaneous"}%]] 
   * [[SFProjects][%MAKETEXT{"Projects"}%]] 
   * [[SFPurchasing][%MAKETEXT{"Purchasing"}%]] 
   * [[http://intranet/content/quality/quality_index_1.html][%MAKETEXT{"Quality"}%]] 
   * [[SFSales][%MAKETEXT{"Sales"}%]] 
   * [[SFWorkShop][%MAKETEXT{"Workshop"}%]] 

And the equivalent translations under de.po was

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:4
msgid "Article Book "
msgstr "Artikel-Buch "

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:5
msgid "Price List "
msgstr "Preisliste "

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:6
msgid "Design "
msgstr "Entwurf "

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:7
msgid "IT "
msgstr "EDV "

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:8
msgid "Human Resources  "
msgstr "Arbeitskräftepotenzial "

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:9
msgid "Miscellaneous  "
msgstr "Verschieden "

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:10
msgid "Projects "
msgstr "Projekte "

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:11
msgid "Purchasing  "
msgstr "Kauf "

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:12
msgid "Quality "
msgstr "Qualität "

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:13
msgid "Sales "
msgstr "Verkäufe "

#: data/Intranet/WebBar.txt:14
msgid "Workshop"
msgstr "Werkstatt "

Now when I change the language to German all the texts under WebBar still appeared in English, except Werkstatt appeared for the last line Workshop...

What could be the reason for this...????

Discussion and Answer

I managed to solve it myself... The problem was the trailing spaces in the msgid texts....
