Change language first time?

[jmansa]

I'm making a multilanguage site, but I am having some trouble when changing language?

When a user click on a flag he has to refresh once before the language changes... How do I fix this?

$lang = urlencode($_GET['lang']);

setcookie("lang",$lang,time()-60*60*24*365,"/",".mypage.com",0);
setcookie("lang",$lang,time()+60*60*24*365,"/",".mypage.com",0);

$protocol = $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'on' ? 'https' : 'http';
$fullUrl = $protocol.'://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

echo '<a href="'.$fullUrl.'&amp;lang=da"><img src="images/flags/flags_16x16/213.png" title="Danish" style="padding:1px;"></a>';
echo '<a href="'.$fullUrl.'&amp;lang=en"><img src="images/flags/flags_16x16/225.png" title="English" style="padding:1px;"></a>';

There is no code provided, that actually changes language, so we have to guess.
I bet it depends on the cookie, so, because cookie contains previuos language, user have to refresh the page. Make it to use GET param too.

Optionally, once the cookie has been set you can redirect back to the same page, which performs that second load that you seem to require.

How should I user the GET in this?

echo '<a href="'.$fullUrl.'&amp;lang=da"><img src="images/flags/flags_16x16/213.png" title="Danish" style="padding:1px;"></a>';

not in this.
not in the code that builds link
in the code that choose language based on cookie
