Anyone know how to find the "ISO 639: 3-letter codes (http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/IG/ert/iso639.htm)", not just the "2-letter codes".

Needed in JS (no serverside, asp, etc...)

Now I'm looking for this using JS or PHP...

Thank you, it does a little...


...but I still need to find a way to detect the codes using JS or PHP. I'd like to be able to use it to document.write a visitors' location and/or to use it for my visitor logs.

You may be able to get the code(s) by referencing the DOM, but I don't know the exact Javascript line(s) to do it. You will need to look for both the "lang" and the "xml:lang" items.
