HTML5 WebHMI displays can specify the language to use for Language Aliasing in the URL of the display. This is done by specifying the "lang" parameter in the URL and passing in the language code. Set "lang" equal to the culture name or "language tag" of the language to be used.
This feature allows multi-language sites to give separate URLs to their users to load the site in their native language without having to create separate pages on the server side to load the language. While it is possible to specify a default language for a security user, specifying the language in the URL allows pages to be translated before anyone logs in or on pages that do not require a login.
Example URLs:
http://servername/AnyGlass/PubDisplay/Display1.gdfx?lang=fr
http://servername/AnyGlass/PubDisplay/Display2.gdfx?lang=en-GB
When specified in this fashion, the display acts as if the Set Language command was processed upon display load.
