    culture value in javascript

    hi i was wondering how i can get the pages culture value with javascript code. I can set the culture in the VB backend for the site just fine. But i don't know how to check the value of the culture being called ("en-CA / fr-fr") in my javascript. I am aiming to change my sites CSS script depending on the culture value but first i need to check what it is.

    OR i can do this on the page load in the backend via VB code, but in that section i don't know how to change the CSS for all the page.

    So for a answer i either need to know how to :

    -Check the culture Value in javascript
    OR
    -Change all the page's CSS in VB code

    Because you can detect the user's current culture in the codebehind, you can dynamically set the CSS file to use by creating an HtmlGeneric control, set the tag to "link", rel to "stylesheet" and href to the path of the CSS file based upon the culture that you have. Then, add that to the Page.Head of the page.

    Check either Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE"] or Request.UserLanguages.
