RE: Is html:html locale attribute needed for internationalisation ?

You don't absolutely need it, but it may help in some instances of
internationalization....read the synopsis at:

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/dirlang.html#adef-lang

It list where you might need to use something like that.

Subject: Is html:html locale attribute needed for internationalisation?



Have a struts app that is going to be internationalised this year.

In a quick spike, I added an application resources file for a new
country/language, deployed the app, and accessed it with several different
browsers.  I'd set these browsesr so their preferred country/language was
the new non-english one.  Worked like a champ - data came out of the
appropriate file from the bean:message tags.

The thing that confuses me is, I'm not using the html:html struts tag.  The
templates all have a straight vanilla non-struts <html> at the top.  So
what is the struts <html:html locale="true"> needed for?  What is the
potential difference in behavior I will get if I use that tag?
