[Pro] Loading a site based on OS language

A client who runs a multilingual site (three languages at the moment) has asked if it would be possible for the site to detect the language of the OS or browser and open the relevant site version.

If this is possible, how can I achieve it using Freeway?

Thanks

Sure. You want to use a feature called Content Negotiation, part of
the Apache Web server. I have written an Action to simplify the
authoring side of things (look on the Forge) but you will need your
hosting provider to make some configuration changes to support this on
the server before it will Just Work.

You know, I looked at the Forge, saw this and didn’t realise that’s
what it did!

Thanks Walter. I’ll read up a bit more and see what can be done.
