Yesterday, while searching for a way to programmatically do HTTP Basic
Authentication, I ended up visiting the Japanese language version of
http://php.net/

The User-Contributed notes that matched my search were in English, so
I thought nothing of it, and successfully completed that task.

Today, I type something like:
http://php.net/mysql_affected_rows
And I end up on the Japanese site, with no /ja/ in the URL.

I suppose this is a "feature" and a nifty one at that...

... for those users that can actually read Japanese.

Errrr...  How do I turn this feature off?

:-) :-) :-)

Actually, I'd have to say it's a bug that viewing the site ONE TIME in
some language forever ties one to that language...  I did nothing
explicit to "choose" Japanese, other than clicking on a link in a
search engine -- said link having nothing about it to indicate I was
switching to Japanese.

Aha!  I just click on a link to get to a URL with /ja/ in it, then
change the /ja/ to /en/ and then it default back to English when I use
a short-cut URL again.

I think this post can now be condensed into a plea:

When the php.net site is utilizing a short-cut URL, perhaps an
additional navigational element should be added to switch languages,
as it is not at all obvious how one should switch.
