After doing some further research, I have found the following:
By writing a small piece of custom middleware, I can change the value
of HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE. If I add this line to a process_request()
request.META['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'] = 'no'
then the webpage will be displayed with Norwegian translation.
However, I want to set the language based on which page the user is
trying to view, and process_request() doesn't know this. On the other
hand, if I use process_view(), I am able to determine what the
language should be, as process_view() gets passed for example the
arguments from the url. However, when I add the same line as above to
process_view(), nothing happens to the language.
Is there an easy way to do this?
