HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE in OP path requests (Wishlist)
HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE in OP path requests // WishlistcodewarriorNov 15, 2003, 3:48pm
It would be useful if the browsers current language setting,
or the current message set being used were provided somehow in the HTTP request that goes to the object path. This would allow different textures to be provided as signage for people speaking different languages. Different obects might also be called for (a welcome sign made from an extruded font), different .wav files (spoken messages) depending on the persons language, and if the country code were also included, a policeman could look like the right kind of police man no matter what culture you are from. While it would not address the issue of objects created using the 'sign' command, it would be a start, and even if the 'sign' command is addressed in future, a complete solution for the language issue would still involve allowing the OP path server to also know the users current language. |
