Because the browser asks for * additionally. If the browser would just ask for no it would get a "406 Not Acceptable" error page that says something like this: #v+ An appropriate representation of the requested resource /projects/slrn/quick could not be found on this server. Available variants: * quick.de.html , type text/html, language de #v- If there is though a link from the foo.en.html to foo.html then foo.html will get served. I'm not sure if we do this links everywhere, I guess we do. If on the other hand there is a * in the Accept-Language header (like IE likes to send) the server is allowed to choose any (because the client says that it wants any) -- and thus it sends any. This poppes up every now and then on this list, there was a huge discussion some months ago where someone offered to patch Apache so it is possible to set a Default order if someone requests *, but that thread somehow vanished.... > I think it is a bug to return a random locale instead of english, isn't it? If the user requests _any_ (and that is what he does if he sends *) he shouldn't be surprised if he gets any. No, it's not a bug, it's a feature.
