Re: [PHP-I18N] Encoding detection

Re: [PHP-I18N] Encoding detection | Re: [PHP-I18N] Encoding detection
Thanks for your timely cooperation.
In fact following the direction you gave me I found out that
$HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE was what would work even better....
Something strange happened though:
I formed my include like this:
include "lang_".$HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE.".INC";
So, I have 2 files - lang_bg.inc and lang_de.inc. If I switch my regional
settings from Bulgarian to German-standard and browse the site with IE
everything's just fine - but if I try NS all of a sudden
$HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE has the value of "en" no matter if my regional
settings are Bulgarian of German.
Any ideas as to what the workaround for this would be?
