You can't do that in HTML. You need some server-side
scripting to check
and parse the HTTP Accept-Language header, which is sent by
the browser.
On an Apache server a feature called "content negotiation"
might be
another option to let the server decide automatically which
language
variant of a page to return.

User console redirection webpage uses unnecessary browser sniffing

User console redirection webpage uses unnecessary browser sniffing
https://ps.palmws.com/palmcsext/console/
That user console redirection webpage has this piece of JavaScript that uses unnecessary browser sniffing:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function checkBrowser()
var agt=navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase();
var is_mac = (agt.indexOf("mac")!=-1);
var is_ie = (agt.indexOf("msie")!= -1);
var is_opera = (agt.indexOf("opera")!= -1);
var is_firefox = (agt.indexOf("firefox")!= -1);
var is_window = (agt.indexOf("window")!= -1);
var is_safari = (agt.indexOf("safari")!= -1);
if (is_window) {
if (is_firefox || is_ie || is_safari) {
window.location = "/palmcsext/console/pages/LoginPage.iface";
} else {
window.location = "/palmcsext/console/notfound/notfound.html";
} else if (is_mac) {
window.location = "/palmcsext/console/pages/LoginPage.iface";
} else {
window.location = "/palmcsext/console/pages/LoginPage.iface";
</script>
The browser sniffing is pretty harmful. Remove it.
Just simply change the script to:
window.location = "/palmcsext/console/pages/LoginPage.iface";

If you look at the logic, even unsupported browsers will pass the test.
The if statements only check for supported browsers running on Windows or Mac OSes. If the user is using a different OS, regardless of supported or unsupported browser, the webpage will still redirect correctly.
The script doesn't do a good job of checking for supported browsers either. The user can set a custom user agent, and the code can't rely on the user agent string.
Checking for browser support should be done by feature detection, not by user agent string checking.
If the user sets a custom user agent string or uses a browser with which the code works, then it harms the user.
The concept of the web is that it should work everywhere. Blocking browsers not only harms the user but also harms the web.
If the code is written to web standards, the webpage should work in all modern browsers.
Thus, it is pointless, inefficient, and unnecessary to have those if statements there.
Like I said, the code can be simplified by just using 1 line:
window.location = "/palmcsext/console/pages/LoginPage.iface";
I have asked for more specifics here to find out why that logic is in place. Not saying I can post back anything, but I have asked.
And unless I'm reading it wrong, the check for unsupported browsers (so anything NOT firefox, ie or safari) only happens if you're running windows. If you're on Mac or some other OS, it directs to the working page. I have asked about that, too.

User language according to browser settings

Hi all,I saw that is possible to display the guest page according to the browser language. This is done by leaving blank the <International><Locale> attribute in j_config.xml. If I want to use this mechanism for all the portal users, do you know what kind of customization I have to do?
Thank you,Alberto Marchiaro

You can instruct the portal to use the browser language for all users by changing the Default Profile (Default Profiles utility | Edit Profile | MyAccount | Edit Locale Settings) to "Use Browser Locale".
Once you save this profile, any newly created user will see the Portal UI in the locale/language of the browser the first time the user logs into the Portal (assuming the browser language is supported by the Portal).If the same user logs off and logs back into the Portal after changing the browser locale, the Portal will continue to use the locale set on initial login. In other words, the initial login behaves as a sort of "stamp" -- after the initial log-in users can change their locale via MyAccount | Edit Locale Settings.
Setting locales should be performed via the Default Profile for regular users or the Guest Profile for guest users. Modifying the <International><Locale> attribute in j_config.xml is rarely necessary and not recommended.If you experience any problems with this, please let us know and make sure you provide configuration details (Portal version, etc.) as well as any relevant customaization you have done or plan to do.

Why is firefox 5 incompatible with talktalk email. i've been told to use another browser

problem with sending emails on talktalk. They are very very slow and I get this messaage
'The page isn't redirecting properly. Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for the address in a ... (and then this message stops there)
I contacted talktalk and they said Firefox 5 is incompatible with talktalk email and I should use another browser. Can I go back to Firefox 4, if not I'll have to quit Firefox
Why is this problem happening

Why in God's name is it that every time YOU update firefox my add-on's break? I'll stop using your browser if you are going to keep breaking the plugins platform and require plug-in developers to re-write their plugins to stay compliant! That's retarded!

every time you people update the browser 1/2 or more of my plugins end up broken. WHY? It's counter productive when I rely on some of the add-ons I use. I'll just stop using your browser. Do you know that it gives the impression that it SUCKS?! (By the way, I had updates TURNED OFF and yet it still updated? HOW?!)

Hi earlten
This is a '''Community-Driven''' Support Web Site for Firefox.
The community are volunteers; just ordinary users like yourself who use the Firefox browser and try to offer other users free support. Please remember this and moderate your language to show some respect. I know you are frustrated, but venting this on people who do their best to help others in their free time is not likely to be well received.
Please just state clearly the problem you are having and other users will see if they can help you.
For example: Every so often I check whether my plugins are up to date by using this link:

How to change language during a browsing session

Hi everybody,
We need an implementation where a user can log in with a guestuser (which is shared with different real persons).
So we have user "Guest1" being used by x number of persons.
During their browsing session there persons need to be able to switch the language of the portal between English, French and Dutch WITHOUT changing the language attribute of the portal user "Guest1" in the UME.
Does anybody know how we can achieve this?
I already thought about changing the browser language using javascript but I cant find a way to do this...
(tried navigator.userLanguage = "EN" but this gives me nothing)
Thanks in advance
Kind Regards
Wouter Delellio

Firefox is using large amounts of CPU time and disk access, and I need to know how to shut down most of this so I can actually use the browser.

Firefox is a very busy piece of software. It's using large amounts of CPU time and disk access. It puts my usage at low priority, so I have to wait for some time to be able to use my pointer or keyboard. I don't know what it uses all that CPU and disk access time for, but it's of no use to me. It often takes off with massive use of resources when I'm not doing anything, and I may not have use of my pointer for several minutes. How can I shut down most of this so I can use the browser to get my work done. I just want to use the web site access part of the software, and drop all the extra. I don't want Firefox to be able to recover after a crash. I just want to browse with a minimum of interference from Firefox. I would think that this is the most commonly asked question.

Firefox consumes a lot of CPU resources

Check and tell if its working.

When I am using the browser for a while and try to use ANY search bar and hit the "search" button it does a whopping NOTHING is there anyway of keeping this from happening?

Whenever I am using Firefox mobile - either regular, beta or aurora and go to search for something like through the Google search page and attempt to search for something the search bar does nothing and hitting the enter button instead doesn't do anything either. Is there a way to keep this from happening?

Hi and thanks to not leaving the firefox user alone.
Cor-el your answer is right as the madperson is and I already knew all these
answer and I said that before I don’t use any antivirus and I always turn off my firewall from the moment I installed my Windows.
I even turn off any automatic update for any of my software and I never let any unknown plugins or any thing like that be install without informing me. And if you know some things like Offline Storage and cookies must be to much more than usual and you have to clear them and delete them and I know so much more
And if you want to know it fixed now. But I don’t know how?
For understanding my problem read and research about Ixplorer.exe virus it is the same problem about the speed but the different is it doesn’t show any process in task manager like Ixplorer.exe virus
Bt I have done some things but still I don’t know that’s why it is fixed or not
First: I searched my system and removed any files have been crated on my system from two days ago since the problem happened.
And then I used to go about the article in this page and did like this:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080910101846AAazxN5
but still I don’t know any thing about the problem.
I can do so many things to fix but I am just curios if that is a virus why it just cut the speed when I am using the browser.
Please if any one found the reason send me your information I like to know it will improve my knowledge however my problem is solved fro now.

When using tabbed browsing, if I click to open a new tab, why will it not automatically load my homepage in the new tab instead of a blank window?

I use tabbed browsing with the tab bar visible at all times so I can click on a new tab when convenient.Why can my homepage not load automatically on that newly opened tab insted of a blank screen with a search bar saying "you've opened a new tab".........well yeah. I have looked through the options and cannot find anything to open a new tab with the homepage. Is it possible? Have I missed it? If it's not possible, could you make it so?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I opened a new tab.....see above

The default is to load a blank page.
Try one of these add-ons:

Firefox seems to be my only browser that puts ads on my Facebook page. How can I stop this? I love Firefox but hate the ads and will use another browser until it's solved.

Whenever I open Facebook through Firefox I get pop up ads and such. I do not seem to get this when using other browsers like Safari or IE. It's sooo annoying!!! I will use another browser until it's solved.

Since you have encountered the problem at other sites, not just Firefox, I'd bet that it is an Internet Explorer problem, not the web sites. Actually, I am sure it is an IE problem.
Try running Windows Update, perhaps there are some updates for Internet Explorer that might resolve the problem. If you don't know how to run Windows Update, use the Help on your system to look for information on Windows Update.
If that does not help, use Google to search for information on IE9 locking up when downloading.

What are the programming language used in adobe livecycle development?

hi friends,
I am a fresher.I woundered what adobe has done in livecycle import option.so i want to know wht is the programming language used and how they read graphical fields like line,circle.

Programatically, Java is the language used to implement business logic that would plug into LiveCycle. I believe you can use C# for older versions. However, that information is irrelevant to your problem.
That being said, it's typically not advisable to be modifying PDF files generated by different applications (iText, Adobe LiveCycle, etc.). While both documents may render out as "PDF", they will not be created internally in the same manner. I would advise that it may be easy to add PDF files generated by other applications as attachments, they are not going to be easily handled unless you address each specific document in a custom manner.
