Hi folks, Am currently playing with getPreferredLanguage on Android and am unsure if I have found an "issue".
In; https://github.com/apache/cordova-docs/blob/master/docs/en/edge/cordova/globalization/globalization.getPreferredLanguage.md "Returns the language identifier string to the successCallback with a properties object as a parameter. That object should have a value property with a String value." navigator.globalization.getPreferredLanguage( function (language) {alert('language: ' + language.value + '\n');}, function () {alert('Error getting language\n');} ); On Android the function doesn't seem to return an identifier as such, it returns a string describing the language localised to that language, e.g. "English" or "中文" for Japanese. Naturally this is less than ideal for subsequent string operations, furthermore on that page "Windows Phone 8 Quirks - Returns the ISO 639-1 two-letter code for the current language" which is an identifier, and also what I would expect (or an ISO 639-2 code, as per http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php) Android seems to support 639-2 http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/Locale.html#getISO3Language() I have no idea what it returns on other platforms, but to keep client code consistent it would be great if this could be normalised in the API. As an aside, the locale is not really what I want here, as the user may be in the US but have Japanese as their preferred language. Thanks, jon
