* I was using this...but it's bad (not accurate)....
// browser detect - returns the users browsers language preference
function browsLang() {
return ( navigator.language || navigator.userLanguage );
};
*
* Thanks to DanSingerman @ JavaScript for detecting browser language preference - Stack Overflow http://bit.ly/czTmtO
* This requires jQuery, but gives a more accurate read of the user's browser language pref
* by reading the http header from the user's browser upon request to : http://ajaxhttpheaders.appspot.com/
*

var browserLang;
jQuery.ajax({
url: "http://ajaxhttpheaders.appspot.com",
dataType: 'jsonp',
success: function(headers) {
browserLang = normaliseLang(headers['Accept-Language']);
carryOnFriend();
}
});
// The following function contains the real meat of the script file
// But because I'm in a hurry, I'll wrap most of my file inside this function
// Then we'll run this fn as a callback when everything else if finished
function carryOnFriend() {
// Everything else that needs to happen after the AJAX goes here
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
// Stuff to do as soon as the DOM is ready. Use $() w/o colliding with other libs;
});
