Thank you very much for you answer Kevin, even if you're not an expert in this!

 Is there anybody else, who knows a little more?

 Thx!

It would be cheaper to go with a naming scheme similar to the one used by wikipedia.org, with a subdomain for each language. Using your example it would be en.cloud.com, hu.cloud.com, and so on. > 1.

(INVISIBLE = domain name remains > www.cloudhu.com in the browser, but it displays www.cloud.com) There is a header sent by the browser with an ordered list of preferred languages. It seems like that should be what triggers serving up different languages. Doing it that way gives you a single point of entry which may make it easier to write documentation, advertising, do branding, whatever. The common fallback is of course to rely on cookies. I do understand that either of these requires support in ownCloud which may make it difficult for you to implement before, say, dinnertime today. It's just an option. It looks like Firefox 3 (yes, I'm backlevel a bit) still has language selection in the preferences. But I don't see it (on first blush) in an almost current Safari. Maybe I just don't know where the setting is located. I don't know if this language feature is still common or not. If it isn't then it doesn't really help you. It seems weird that Netscape/Mozilla/Firefox would keep it in the preferences pane for a decade if it wasn't being used, though. Hmmmm. I don't think your #2 above is going to work. No idea on #1, though. Rereading the above it looks like I don't know much. Sorry about that. Last time I ran a web server full time was 12 years ago. Oh, and I believe this is my first post to the list. "Hullo!" *wave* -- Kevin P. Neal http://www.pobox.com/~kpn/ "I like being on the Daily Show." - Kermit the Frog, Feb 13 2001
