Is anyone aware of there exists a means in Javascript to determine the
browser's default locale? Thanks, Ike
Not really.
There is navigator.language (Gecko-based browsers, Opera 8 and possibly
other browsers) and navigator.browserLanguage (IE, Opera 8 and possibly
other browsers), but it's not particularly useful since it really
doesn't tell you anything about the person using the Web browser.
The best approach is to present a list of locales for the user to choose
from, then store that in a profile on the server, or in a cookie on the
client.
