What is this?? Well now who would have guessed that? I almost forgot myself, so this is from the users guide. Some websites offer their contents in multiple languages. For example, twitter.com has an English version, a French version, and = so forth. It is possible to select the language when requesting the page. Edbrowse supports this via the localizeweb keyword in its configuration = file. For instance, the following entry in .ebrc indicates that you want the = French version, when it is available. localizeweb =3D fr At a more technical level, it sends Accept-Language: en in the outgoing http headers. This should have shown up as a difference between our two log files, = right at line 11. But ok, why should that matter? Why wouldn't it guess English like every other website? Or put up a menu of choices? That is very mysterious. If it holds up then I need to ask you all a question. Should I 1. Add, to the users guide, a warning that this directive should be = included, since some important websites won't work without it. 2. Automatically send this http directive if you don't specify it, = according to your LANG parameter. I would of course document that behavior. Karl Dahlke --nextpart-eb-391253--
