For some values of "works." It works IF every last single one of your users wants the SAME default language. The person asking the question did point out that the users were in more than one other country and so may want different languages. I certainly remember an earlier request along those lines and I think the development team said they were considering a feature whereby you could select your language. I would suggest that possibly the cleanest way of doing it would be to change message 0 to contain the character set followed by the name of the language IN that language and amending the character set selection code accordingly. Then the language names could be presented in a drop-down in the appropriate character sets. I consider modifying message 0 slightly preferable than adding a new message code a long way down which is the language name. I would also suggest that instead of defaulting to en if the browser's preferred languages are unavailable, it defaults to a language called 'default' and that a configuration-time option for the default language soft-links default to a specific language file (if this option is not specified then the install defaults to linking the default language to en. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support
