> Forrest "looses" the locale when switching pages
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FOR-936
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-936
> Project: Forrest
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core operations, Internationalisation (i18n), Launch
> 'forrest run'
> Affects Versions: 0.8-dev
> Reporter: Sjur N. Moshagen
> Attachments: sticky-locale-patch.txt
>
>
> When moving from one page to another and switching locales in between, the
> chosen locale is lost when entering the new page. To reproduce:
> 1) set up and run forrest with i18n ON
> 2) open a localized page
> 3) switch locale by appending '?locale=XY' in the address field
> 4) open another page available in both the original locale (before the
> switch) and the new locale XY
> 5) notice how the new page is displayed in the original locale, NOT the
> expected XY locale
> Although one could argue that the described behaviour is wanted in some
> cases, I believe that to most users it would be natural that the locale is
> "sticky" once changed - it should not change back by itself. Thus, the
> "sticky" behaviour should be default in Forrest.
> The fix is simple, patch to come soon.
