Models and controllers are server-side entities.

my server side

thanks philips, i knew it, it is request.env[“HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE”],
but those javascript functions give me navigator language and os
language.
anyway i think you’re right i will use this method.

Add this to an action:

raise request.env.inspect

That shows the HTTP headers. One of them should specify the language.

Yes, you can work with request headers on the server side, since servers
actually know about requests.
