Hi, Our website correctly handles several languages with content negotiation, but we wish to direct only our Chinese customers to our simplified Chinese pages, and have all other Chinese language-tags return English pages. Does anyone know how to make our Chinese pages only show up for zh-CN browsers? After reading the Apache manual and the relevant articles, I became convinced that modifying the following lines would produce the intended effect: AddLanguage zh-CN .zh-CN AddLanguage zh-TW .en (was: AddLanguage zh-TW .zh-TW -- pages that are in development) AddLanguage zh .en (was added) This does work for the Chinese language tag variants, but it completely breaks our standard English content-negotiation, so we now get German (.de) pages where we should be getting English pages.(And English is higher in the language preferences, so I can only guess it reaches rule 8 of content negotiation, and picks alphabetically) I got the same results on versions 1.3.24 and 2.0.52 of apache(1.3.24 being our live machine), and would appreciate any help on getting our Simplified Chinese pages to the appropriate audience and English pages to other Chinese viewers.
Your problem report is not all that clear. My understanding is that you want browsers who send zh-CN in their Accept-Language to get pages with the .zh-CN extension, but you want browsers who send zh-TW to get pages with the .en extension. This could be accomplished by marking the .en pages with two different languages, but I don't believe apache supports that. I see two ways to handle this: 1. create a duplicate copy (or even better, a symlink of) the .en page with the .zh-TW extension and use the standard AddLanguage zh-TW .zh-TW config. You'd be lying to the clients about the language, but that shouldn't be a big deal. 2. Eliminate all references to zh-TW in your config and use LanguagePriority Prefer Fallback (available only in 2.x) (and make sure en is high up in your LanguagePriority) Joshua. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
