I can't see a way in CSS to detect the user agent preferred language, but you could do this in JS and add another attribute to the document or whatever.
- Theodores 3mo agoCorrect! It has been a year since I last checked, and I did use JS and 'navigator'. However, importantly for me, I was able to avoid a trip back to the server for the few bits I wanted - introduction - in different locales.
- Theodores 3mo agoActually, I looked into it some more, and SVG Switch, which should do stuff based on browser locale. However, it was showing me 'en-US' not 'en-GB'. There is a bug in SVG switch that means it can do languages automagically but not variants. This I can work with, but it is still something unexpected and unlikely to be fixed because nobody cares about SVG.
