The Web server uses language string resource modules to render Web pages in different languages. The Domino® Web server can support multiple languages and be configured to handle them on the fly.

About this task

The language in which a Web server generates a Web page is based on the Accept-Language setting in the headers of client HTTP requests. For example, a Web server with English and French resource modules will generate a Web page in French if a Web client sends an HTTP request with Accept-Langage:fr (French) in its headers.

Procedure

1. From the Domino Administrator, choose Configuration -> Web -> Internet Sites.

2. Choose the Web Site document you want to edit and click Edit Document.

3. Click Domino Web Engine. Under Web User Preferences, complete these fields:

• Default string resource language - Use this setting to select the default language string resource module for Web clients who do not send Accept-Language information with HTTP requests, or for cases in which the languages specified in the Accept-Language header are not in the languages available on the server.
• Additional string resource languages - Use this setting to select the additional string resource languages that are installed on the server.
