How to determine browser language settings?

Hi,
i want to create a flash chart diagram in APEX 4.0 with dynamic column names (series name={here the dynamic column header}) depending from the browser language setting. How can i determine the browser language setting in the flash charts sql?
Or is there any other way how i can create dynamic column header for this purpose?
Regards
Stephan

Hello,
Just wanted to remind you that APEX has a substitution string called BROWSER_LANGUAGE that holds the current browser language. No need to define extra application item and computation.

Also, if working with multi-lingual is a major motive in your application, you should learn how to use the APEX translation mechanism. It will save you the need to define your own language mapping tables and a lot of ‘CASE’ statements. It can be a real time saver. You can start here:

Browser language settings

Hi,
In browser I have language settings as follows:
Czech(cs)
English(en_us)
My application does not support Czech and Iam getting labels broken string as lables (??xy.user.name??).
Can the application load english or default language properties if czech or selected language properties are not available?
If so what are the changes need to be made from application end.
Thanks,
mvrk

Hi,
Java's ResourceBundle provides you a way to fallback to JVM's default locale(i.e. Locale.getDefault()) and load the properties file for the default locale, if it does not find the resource bundle for the specified locale(e.g. Czech). You can make use this API. Please go through the Java API for details.
Also, for your web application you can design a locale fallback mechanism to determine the locale for a user session (if it is required in your application).
So that the determined locale is used as a parameter to load resource bundles as well as perform any other locale sensitive operations.
Hope this helps.

How to determine which languages available with portal, and how to install

I have a customer who may have a need for languages that might not be default delivered with the portal. They are able to install languages in an ABAP environment (unicode). What I'm trying to understand is:
1.) What languages are available after a NW70 portal installation? How can I determine this? The pull-down list of languages in the UME record for a user is extensive, but they aren't all actually active because I tried some like Korean and the logon to portal was still English. But then I tried Thai and that seemed to work, as did French, Spanish, etc.
2.) How can I install needed langauges for the portal?
I realize that even with the language support, the actual portal content needs to support those. But that's an entirely different issue.

How to avoid browser language effect on portal

Hi All,
I am working on portal default language. My requirement is 'i want avoid the users local browser language'.
I want to see always portal language is 'English' even if user selects 'chinees'. How to reach this target ?
Let us take an example suppose user selected 'Chinees' in his IE but still he needs to get english.
I have tried all solutions from SDN, but none of them worked.
What is the solution for this?
Kind Regards,

Hi
Note 1013521 - Configuration of supported languages within the portal
1. Navigate to system administration > System configuration >Service configuration > Applications com.sap.portal.admin.wizardframework, and right click for configuration.
2. Add/Remove locales to source/target locales lists separated by a comma, a semicolon or a space.
3. Save the changes and restart the service

How do I change language settings?

How do I change the Safari language settings from English (US) to English (UK)? The reason I wish to do this is that I use Gmail and the spell checker marks the UK spellings as errors and I can't add words to dictionary

You may need to use the Edit button to add British English to the list in system prefs/language & text/languages. Also check Safari > Edit > Spelling and Grammar > Show Spelling and Grammar.

How to get browser language

Depending on the language of the browser, (firefox/ie) I want
to localize the flex app. How can I look up the locale setting of
the browser? thanks

Yes it can be used but it will give locale, in case I change the browser lang I am not sure if the locale also gets changed. If not then I guess we can not use this method.

How do I change language settings to English?

I am a native English speaker living in Korea. I am currently using a borrowed laptop while mine is in the shop. It is running Korean Windows (XP, I think). When I downloaded Firefox, as far as I could tell, I had no options of language preferences. It automatically gave me the Korean version. I need English. Is there a way to change that setting? (of course, the menus are all in Korean, so I'm not even sure where to find "settings.") Or should I uninstall and start over with trying to download and English version?

Uninstalling the version you have is your best bet. Open the control panel, click on Add/Remove Programs, and select Mozilla Fireox, or Firefox.<br>After uninstalling Firefox, re-download it by visiting http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html.<br>Scroll down to the English (US) version, and click the download button (The one with the windows logo next to it)<p>I hope this helps.

Certain addons are appearing in spanish. How do i change language settings?

I noticed that a few of my extensions were in spanish, specifically adblock plus and fasterfox. I just downloaded flashblock and it showed up in spanish too. I have other extensions that are showing up in english though so i'm not sure what's happening. i cant find any settings for language either. I'm using firefox on a mac by the way.

Your user agent shows a Catalan (ca) language setting.
It is quite likely that extensions that do support that locale switch to a locale in Spanish instead of English.
You can check the language setting in Firefox > Preferences > Content > Languages

How to determine correct NLS_LANG settings

Hi everyone,
My Database server is RHEL 5.8 32bit with Oracle 11gR2, nls_characterset is AL32UTF8
My client machine is Windows XP SP2 32bit, Chinese Simplified
What should be the correct NLS_LANG settings for my client machine?
When I am not setting the NLS_LANG value, the sqlplus seemed to work, but when I set NLS_LANG=AL32UTF8, the sqlplus gives me below error:
SP2-1503: Unable to initialize Oracle call interface
SP2-0152: ORACLE may not be functioning properly

Pl post your Oracle client version. Pl document how exactly you are setting NLS_LANG on the client.

Smartform how to determine the language of apurchase order.

Hi,
Maybe a simple question. But i cannot find it in my form because it isn't used in it so far.
A purchase order must be printed in the language of the receiver of the purchase (vendor).
Which variable is used to detemine in which language these form text has to be printed.
(it is not sy-langu).
Gr., Frank

No, just the first one
SSFCTRLOP-LANGU
and well it wont be filled, YOU gotta fill it.
Since you want to print out something, you probably have an output type (Nachricht) which is beeing processed.
Language of output type (NAST-SPRAS) is normally drawn from communication language of customer.
So what you need to do is:
data: ls_controls                type SSFCTRLOP.
ls_controls-langu = nast-spras.
CALL FUNCTION lv_formname
    EXPORTING
*     ARCHIVE_INDEX              =
*     ARCHIVE_INDEX_TAB          =
*     ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS         =
*     CONTROL_PARAMETERS         = ls_controls
*     MAIL_APPL_OBJ              =
*     MAIL_RECIPIENT             =
*     MAIL_SENDER                =
*     OUTPUT_OPTIONS             =
*     USER_SETTINGS              = 'X'
      gt_header                  = gt_header
      gt_items                   = gt_items
*   IMPORTING
*     DOCUMENT_OUTPUT_INFO       =
*     JOB_OUTPUT_INFO            =
*     JOB_OUTPUT_OPTIONS         =
    EXCEPTIONS
      formatting_error           = 1
      internal_error             = 2
      send_error                 = 3
      user_canceled              = 4

How to determine where Lightroom Settings (Presets) are stored

I have been running LR with a catalog and images that are on an external disc. I have several presets for use in import, develop, export, etc. Everything has been working fine until I recently was playing with the Print module. After doing that, the next (I think) time I opened my catalog, I discovered that all my presets had disappeared. When I examined the folder on the external disc that contains the catalog, presets, etc., I discovered a new folder, "Lightroom Settings". It contained empty folders for Import Presets, Keyword Sets, Filename Presets, etc. -- everything except the folder for Print Presets. This, obviously, is the cause of my missing presets, but why did it happen?
I'd like to know the "algorithm" for LR's storage of presets -- system level, user level, catalog level, whatever. It would seem to me that if it is adding catalog level presets, then it would either copy the existing set of user presets to the catalog or (probably better), not create empty catalog-level preset folders and use the user-level presets where there are none at catalog level. Is there someplace that this process is explained?

Dynamic browser language setting

Hi,
I need some information on internationalization.
Let me explain the issue..
In my application I need both English and Arabic views. It is possible to Change the language through internationalization.
But one more issue is there for Arabic language. I hope u all know that Arabic letters are from right to left. So I have to change the Browser Language settings also to Arabic..
But in my application it should be handled by an event. If u click Arabic button, you should get Arabic browsers and if English you should get English Browsers.
Can anyone help me on this dynamic browser language setting?
Thanks

Firefox does not display the e with acute accent character correctly from a javascript alert box when my browser language settings are fr_ca or fr_fr. However, it does it correctly when my browser language setting is fr. How do i get it to display e with acute accent and other iso8859 characters correctly in a javascript alert box when my browser language settings are fr_fr and fr_ca?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Use Unicode (UTF-8) for those characters.
Then you will always be sure that they are displayed correctly.
