Capture language of users browser?

[Christophe27]

Hi,

Is it possible to capture the language of a users web browser with JavaScript? If not, is it possible with PHP or Node?

Thanks!

Not sure if you can do it with JavaScript, or not. But PHP can with phpinfo(). If you click this link, you'll see an example of everything that phpinfo() gives. Scroll down to HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE to see that it works in US English and (I believe) German.

With PHP, its in $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE']

Hi,

Is it possible to capture the language of a users web browser with JavaScript?

var bLang = ( navigator.userLanguage || navigator.language ).substring( 0, 2 );

It's possible to determine the time zone (if the user is on time) with this jTimeZoneDetect script (See this demo page)... But time zones are not country nor Languages !

navigator object has a language of the browser. You can see all the attributes that has navigator using operator in: for(attr in navigator)
