I have successfully seen changing the language setting in the/a browser work (in Japanese) when it comes to localisation of a django based site, with LANGUAGE_CODE set to "en". You may need to send more information, for eg: which version of django on what platform (these are less important, but you never know) Do you have USE_L10N = True in settings.py? Do you have 'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware', in MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES? cheers L. > > Any help would be gratefully received. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Django users" group. > To post to this group, send email to django-users@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > django-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/django-users?hl=en. > > -- "... imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in - an interesting hole I find myself in - fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!' This is such a powerful idea that as the sun rises in the sky and the air heats up and as, gradually, the puddle gets smaller and smaller, it's still frantically hanging on to the notion that everything's going to be alright, because this world was meant to have him in it, was built to have him in it; so the moment he disappears catches him rather by surprise."
