This is what I am trying to achieve without much success so far: On a local harddrive or network (so there is no web server involved) the user will point his file browser at some xml file. The xml file will reference an xsl stylesheet like this: <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="Stylesheet.xsl"?> My aim is for the stylesheet to find out the language setting of the user's browser. I have tried JavaScript navigator.language. While I managed to show the language setting in the browser window, what I really want, is to select language dependent style info, like keywords, data format, etc., based on the language setting. So, if my xml file contains something like this: <Distance>100</Distance> With a browser language setting of German this might automatically be displayed as: Entfernung: 100 km and with English-US as: Distance: 62 miles My problem is not having multiple stylesheets achieving this, or using external files with the language dependent info, the problem is the automatic selection of the proper styling based on the browser setting. I do not want to have the user having to select a language by some on-screen mechanism. This only has to work in Internet Explorer 6.0, but if this also works for other browsers that would be even better. Since I am relatively new to the combination of xsl and scripting I would appreciate an answer with foolproof examples that I can understand.
