Hi,

In browsers you can deside the preferred language for contents.
Our application use the Locale.getDefault(). But Locale.getDefault() will not have a effect on browser language selection. We don't want a extra language seletion in our aplication.

Should I do something else to set the preferred language in our application?

It was my problem.

If I use
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().setLocale(Locale.getDefault());
at the top of my program it works.

It's not enough

Locale.getDefault() get always 'en', even if my computer work with 'de' and the preferred language of browser is 'de'.

If I remove the FacesContext code I get a german application.

How can I get the preferred language of browser?

As I know it's not that easy to get the browsers language settings!
The point is that CC is running as an applet in your browser, this is a sandbox so you have no direct access to the browsers preferences!
Maybe there's a way to inject this info with javascript?

What you get is the language the local JVM is running

I made an example, I will post this to the Snippets Zone

Thanks
