I think the problem is the ss. This is the country code not the language code. I believe you have to use the format: langaugecode_COUNTRYCODE_VARIANTCODE. The language code is required but the other codes are optional. So you would use something like:
en_US or simply en sv_SE or simply sv Where en and sv are the language codes (English and Swedish) http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/IG/ert/iso639.htm and US and SE are the country codes http://www.din.de/gremien/nas/nabd/iso3166ma/codlstp1/en_listp1.html (United States and Sweden). I also believe that the case is important.

Everything is going great except I can't seem to get multiple languages going. I am trying to create English (en_IE) and Swedish Chef (ss_IE) versions of the app. I have two resource files, ApplicationResources.properties and ApplicationResources_ss.properties, and the following entry in my web.xml <init-param> <param-name>application</param-name> <param-value>com.marrakech.strutstest.ApplicationResources</param-value> </init-param> To allow the user to change their language I invoke an action which includes the following code: locale = new Locale("ss", "IE"); setLocale(request, locale); I have confirmed that the locale is set in the session. When I try display text from the resource file I use a tag like this: <bean:message key="receipt.receiptNumber"/> Does anyone know why the swedish chef version of the application is not being picked up?
