Most browsers default to the locale/regional settings for the list of languages used in 'Accept-Language'. This means for example that people in the US, with the US version of Windows and Internet Explorer, will have 'Accept-Language'. People in Norway, with Norwegian versions of these programs will have language set to Norwegian. Generally, 'Accept-Language' is very often set. But you *should* always have links to different language versions of the Web pages. -- Karl Ove Hufthammer
