RE: [flexcoders] Cannot get Accept-Language from HTTP header with httpService

[Matt Chotin]

Maybe you can just use ExternalInterface to read the browser’s language?  I think there’s navigator.language or navigator.userLanguage?   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of jfournet Sent: Friday, October 13, 2006 12:46 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Cannot get Accept-Language from HTTP header with httpService   I am trying to get the Accept-Language header by calling the following jsp with a flex httpService to get the locale of the client's browser for i18n purposes. When I execute the jsp standalone the Accept-Language header is there, but when I execute it by calling it with an httpService there is no Accept-Language header. Can anyone tell me why this is so and direct me to a method to get the browser's prefered locale? getlocale.jsp <% String s = request.getHeader("Accept-Language"); out.println(s.substring(0,2) + "_" + s.substring(3,5)); %> Flex Application: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" creationComplete="initApp();"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import flash.external.ExternalInterface; import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent; public var clientLocale:String = new String(); [Bindable] public var localeSWF:String; import mx.controls.Alert; private function initApp():void { getClientLocale.send(); } public function setLocale (event:ResultEvent):void { //Alert.show(String (getClientLocale.lastResult)); localeSWF = "helloworld_" + String (getClientLocale.lastResult) + ".swf"; } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:HTTPService id="getClientLocale" useProxy="false" resultFormat="text" result="setLocale(event)" showBusyCursor="true" method="POST" url="">jsp"> </mx:HTTPService> <mx:SWFLoader id="myLoader" width="300" source="{localeSWF}"/> </mx:Application> __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Software development tool Software development Software development services Home design software Software development company Your email settings: Individual Email|Traditional Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!
