Hi, I need some help to think clearer. To copy the example used on â??Making readable URIsâ?? at W3C: â??A Norwegian without knowledge of basic English would like to be able to remember "www.site.com/fiske/stenger" instead of "www.site.com/fishing/rods".â?? What I am wondering about is how I would go about rewriting the URIs in Apache to allow for content negotiation at these two URIs. If a Norwegian requests â??www.site.com/fishing/rodsâ??, he should get redirected to the Norwegian URI and served the Norwegian document. Say the location of the two versions is "/fishingrods.html.en and fishingrods.html.nb.
---------------- End original message. ---------------------But what if a person with a non-English language preference actually wants to view the English version?
I don't know if forcing the language to match the user's language preference regardless of the URL requested is necessarily a good idea. One example I can think of off-hand would be if somebody were learning a language and wanted to see both versions for comparison. Or maybe if the maintainer of both versions had Norwegian set and wanted to look at the English version without having to change language preferences.
