Summary Android's navigator.language hardcoded to "en"

from: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4641 Using navigator.language reports always "en" in androids browser where as my system language is de-at and the browser UI-Language is german as well. Looking at the attributes of the navigator object I see: navigator.language: en navigator.userAgent: Mozilla/5.0(Linux;U;Android 1.5;de-at;T-Mobile_G2_Touch Build/CPUCAKE) AppleWebKit/528.5+ ... navigator.appVersion: 5.0 (Linux;U;Android 1.5; de-at; ...) I know that navigator.language does not reflect the OS-Language but because my browser interacts with me in german I would have expected navigator.language to be "de"

Looks fine, assuming it's the normal design pattern for Android to call PlatformBridge from WebCore/platform/android files (which seems weird).

Comment on attachment 73125 [details] Changes Android's WebCore::platformDefaultLanguage() to get the correct value from PlatformBridge Yes, this is a standard pattern for Android. Chromium uses a similar approach too.
