SystemLanguage/UserLanguage

Hi,

Does anyone know the difference between
"window.navigator.systemLanguage" and
"window.navigator.userLanguage"? What can be detected with each of
them? Do you know which languages are represented?

I would like to know as much as possible about these 2 settings.

Thanks in advance

They are both from IE, one storing the language of the operating system, the
other the langauge setting of the browser.

More and a list of language codes can be found at
