How to get the browser language using JavaScript

Try this script to get your browser language

<script type="text/javascript">
var userLang = navigator.language || navigator.userLanguage; 
alert ("The language is: " + userLang);
</script>

Cheers

The "JavaScript" way:

var lang = navigator.language || navigator.userLanguage; //no ?s necessary

Really you should be doing language detection on the server, but if it's absolutely necessary to know/use via JavaScript, it can be gotten.
