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 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.

What is the solution for this?
Kind Regards,

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.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14373_01/appdev.32/e11838/concept.htm#sthref218
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:

How to get user language in property renderer without web dynpro (java)

Hi all,
how can I get the language of the current user?
Normally I got it with:
IWDClientUser wdClientUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
com.sap.security.api.IUser sapUser = wdClientUser.getSAPUser();
IUser ep5User = WPUMFactory.getUserFactory().getEP5User(sapUser);
IResourceContext resourceContext = new ResourceContext(ep5User);
String strUserLanguage = resourceContext.getLocale().getLanguage();
But this only works in web dynpro applications. Now I need to get the language in my own property renderer. The code throws:
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.sal.um.api.WDUMException: No client user defined for the current request (no regular Web Dynpro request as ITask is null.
Thanks a lot
Steffi

Hi,
If you are in a property renderer you always have a IResource which inturn has a ResourceContext and ResourceContext has the Users object.
So the code should be:
IResourceContext resourceContext = IResource.getContext();
IUser user = resourceContext.getUser();
user.getLocale().getLanguage();

How to get Different language in ALV header

Hi Experts,
Please help to get the Header text in other language other than English.
I want to get Combodian language to be in the header so that the user can understand by looking at the header.Its is also required for the top of page event.
If any translations required in future is there any option to change that header
Pleas help me,
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Shalem.

I think whatever header you want to mention that should be specified in fieldcatalogue. So in whichever format/language you are specifying in fieldcatalgue in that format/language only it will be displayed in alv.
Best Regards,

Which version of Safari? What exactly are you doing?
I have Safari 3.0.2 (I never use Safari so I don't bother updating). I open a Window, do a Google search, click on a blue link, takes me to the new page. I click the back arrow which takes me back to my Google results where I now see the link is a purple color. Not the best of contrast colors I have to admit. This isn't happening for you?

How to get browser URL

Dears
We are working with system with 2 application server IPs and one Real IP (which is able to be accessed through internet)
I would like to know the URL is the user using in order to use his IP to open something else from the system.
Chcking the host name not usesful because if user connect from home using Real IP it return the AS host name which real IP redirct to it.
I need to know how to get the URL of the session from the form or to know whether the user connected using the Real IP or not.
(Oracle forms 10gR2)

I think you can get a URL from/with a PJC (java pluggable component) from/with IHandler interface..
Try this bean.. You have a property with name HOST_URL.. (with some modification you can also read applet parameters).. (I have done this now but I have not jet tested it)....but I thik this should work...
You have also other parameters to get client IP addres and hostname...

How to get the language of the running InDesign?

Hi,
in my CS3 VB Script there is a a statement:
myParaStyle.KerningMethod = "Optical"
this code runs unter CS3 with English and German version of InDesign unchanged.
Now, with CS4, InDesign wants as parameter the strings "Optical" for Englissh, and "Optisch" for the German version.
How do I find out the language, InDesign is runnung?
P.S. Why is the parameter implementet as string and not as Identifier?
Thanks
Erwin

In JS you can use a locale-independent string:
myParaStyle.kerningMethod = "$ID/Optical"
Maybe it will work in VB...

How to get "Browse" list of any DAQmx control in array form

When any DAQmx control is pulled down, it gives Browse option in the list as well along with a list. On clicking the Browse button same list is displayed in another dialog box. Is there any way to get this list in the form of an array or in any other form for further usage.

I actually want to get an array containing list of all physical Channels of all devices installed on a system. Just to choose one Physical channel one can use DAQmx Physical channel control. And when this control is pulled down it gives complete list of all physical channels of all devices intalled on that system but this control selects only one channel. One way to get that array or list is to put a propery node of this control in a loop which points to one element of that list and keeps shifiting to next element on every iteration but unfortunately there is no such property node.
The example which u have attached with ur message actually uses DAQmx System property node which gives an array of all devices installed on that system, similary this propery node also gives certain other lists like all Tasks, global channels etc but no physical channels and neither I could find any such property.
I hope u've understood my problem so if u could help me out I'll be thankful to u.

How to get current language bar setting for input language

I am using Flex Builder 3, IE 7 and windows OS. Is there a
way to determine the current input language as set in the "language
bar"? The Capabilities class always returns "en" even after I set
Chinese ("ch") as my input language.

Hi Dragon Cao,
No need to create any customer exit variable for this ..
You have standard variable CMONTH this displays current month summation. Just restrict your Key figure with this variable.
And in properities of Key figure goto Calculations> Local Calculations> select Summation.
If you want to assign some calday at run time sure you need to create customer exit variable using Step_2 value in enhancements(CMOD).

Nokia E51 ,How to get Dutch language back???

After installing update 200.34.36 i think i overlooked the language item and now i am stuck with an English operating system. I tried to re/install the Dutch version but whatever
i do, the system stays English. Do anybody know the trick to tackle this problem
Greetings

"quoting Psychomania"
You should contact the retailer as you have most likely been sold an imported model that was not designed for sale in your country.
Nokia phones that are designed to be sold in Dutch speaking countries always include the Dutch language.
Nokia care points can add languages for you, give your nearest one a call if the retailer cannot or will not help you.
Fear not those who argue but those who dodge
