I'll try my best to :)
I have heard from people (Haven't done it my self) that it is possible
and reliable, to use the browsers language setting which gets
transmitted in one of the headers (Not sure which one off hand) to
initially select the language for the site from your database. IE: If
you speak english, and have english selected as your browser language
preference, it will send that to the server, when your script sees it,
it's a fairly good assumption that that would be the preferred
language to display in, so the server pushes up the english version of
the site.
Obviously, you need to have the actual translated files stored on your
server to choose from. And, you should always give them away of
overriding the guessed option, just in case they really don't want to
use what it appears like they do :)
Does that explain it better?
