Parsing the Accept Language Header
Setting Document Preferences
The default is usually Text/Plain, but you should set it to the type of file most
commonly stored on your server. Some common MIME types include the
following:
text/plain
text/richtext
image/jpeg
application/x-tar
application/x-gzip
When clients contact a server using HTTP, they can send header information
describing the languages they accept. You can configure your server to parse
this language information.
For example, if you store documents in Japanese and English, you could
choose to parse the Accept Language header. When clients that have Japanese
as the Accept Language header contact the server, they receive the Japanese
version of the page. When clients that have English as the Accept Language
header contact the server, they receive the English version.
If you do not support multiple languages, you should not parse the Accept
Language header.
