Re: I18N - How to set locale per code?

Presumably you're deploying your app as a .war to a Servlet container
(like Tomcat or Jetty), what you'll want to do is create a .jsp
(instead of a plain static .html file) that dynamically writes out
your host html and have that include the user's locale preference.

If you're not using a java server-side, the concept is still extremely
similar, just substitute php, perl, .net or whatever in place of jsp
to dynamically write your GWT host page.
