Abstract
A method and apparatus are described for dynamic localization of electronic documents. A user sends a request for a computer system resource from a client computer system (client) via a client application such as Web browser (browser). The request specifies a locale-neutral location identifier, such as a locale-neutral uniform resource locator (URL). The locale-neutral location identifier is sent to a server (server). Server retrieves the locale-neutral contents from the location specified by the location identifier, and delivers the locale-neutral contents to client. Client retrieves locale settings based on a selected locale. A localization function builds localized contents by applying the locale settings to the locale-neutral contents.
