A:
The following JavaScript will get you all the properties of the navigator object that you can look at:
document.write('<pre>');
for (var i in navigator)
{
document.writeln('navigator.' + i + ' = ' + navigator[i]);
}
document.write('</pre>');
My Firefox has this attribute:
navigator.language = en-US
... which should suit your needs.

Wow BipdelShark was fast! Here is a solution that I use to deal with most browsers:
<script type="text/javascript">
var language = navigator.userLanguage || navigator.language;
alert(language);
</script>

No, you're not being dense. I have a en-US install of Firefox. From Tools.Options.Content.Languages, I deleted English/United States[en-US], and added Spanish[es]. I browse to a website and I can see Firefox sends the HTTP headerAccept-Language: esThe response returnsContent-Language: es-ESIf I use firebug to inspect window.navigator.language, it is "en-US" and my dojo application uses the incorrect language.Ironically, ie gets this right.

Sorry if I'm being dense, but I just went into firefox's Options->Content and removed all languages except German/Germany, and navigator.language hasn't changed - it's still en-GB (I'm in the UK).
I'm told if I get the German INSTALL of firefox it will work, but I shouldn't need to do that, right?
The useragent string still contains en-UK, too; but the accept-language on HTTP headers IS set correctly. Anyone know how to get to the correct setting?
