We have several questions concerning Accept-Language as described in rfc2068: Are there any browsers which already send an Accept-Language header based on the user's language? Assuming that the browser does this, what should the server do with this? Does there have to be a script on the server to find the HTML files in the right language? Once the HTML file in the right language is found, can the URLs within that HTML file just point to other HTML files and have the correct language selected? That is, can we have URLs without language codes in them and have HTML files retrieved in the language required by the user? Has anyone implemented a dynamic multilingual web site which does not require the user to explicitly indicate the language as part of the URL? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary W.
