Probably not the problem here , but I encountered some issues with IE5's sending the accept-language header, where if one has modified ones 'Regional Settings' from the control panel, IE will sometimes use the default language selected there, and sometimes use the setting in IE languages. This seems to change between consecutive requests even and I havent quite pinned down under which circumstances it submits the correct setting and when it uses the regional settings one. JavaScript location.replace always seem to submit the regional settings language though, instead of the language set in IE. This probably isnt the problem in your case but might be worth checking just in case.

I tried to convert my struts application to support multiple languages. However, it seems to me that application is not picking up the language setting set in IE (google does show up in Spanish, though). However, If I use setLocale in my LogonAction, the application does display the Spanish text (specified in ApplicationResources_es.properties) correctly. These are the steps that I did: 1) Put ApplicationResources.properties and ApplicationResources_es.properties under WEB-INF/resources 2) Put a content type UTF-8 declaration on top of all JSPs 3) Put (Craig/Apache)'s SetCharaceterEncodingFilter.java under filters in src. 4) Put the mapping of filter for ActionServlet in web.xml 5) Change the language of IE to spanish (the Google page does show up in Spanish). 6) Also tried to set the Locale in session in LogonAction.execute(), in which case, it picks up the correct file I am detailing the directory structure below, in case someone thinks it could be the issue. .ear |____.war | |______servlet classes (some modules use HttpServlets) | |______filters | |___SetCharaceterEncodingFilter |____.jar |______com.fdt.lcp.* (actions/forms/models/daos/ejbs/utils) The struts.jar is not a part of the ear file. It is under appserver/lib directory. The Struts application runs fine, but internationalization is not working. thanks a bunch, Amrinder PS: This the change that I made to my web.xml to put filter mapping for action: <!-- Filter to set character encoding on each request --> <filter> <filter-name>Set Character Encoding</filter-name> <filter-class>filters.SetCharacterEncodingFilter</filter-class> <init-param> <param-name>encoding</param-name> <param-value>UTF-8</param-value> </init-param> </filter> <!-- Define filter mappings for the defined filters --> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>Set Character Encoding</filter-name> <servlet-name>action</servlet-name> </filter-mapping> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
