Hi,

I have a German localized computer.
I have a html file:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//DE">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-language" content="de">
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<input type="file">
</body>
</html>

and expect to have a German text in the upload control within my QWebView.
But this is not the case, it is always english "Choose file - no file selected".
The following code doesn't help too:

QLocale l = QLocale::system&#40;&#41;;   //l.name() == "de_DE"
//l = QLocale(QString::fromLatin1("nn_NO"));
myqwebview->setLocale(l);

It is possible to change the displayed text in the upload control?

Ciao

additional information:
the navigator.userAgent is German too:
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE) AppleWebKit/533.3 (KHTML, like Gecko) myqwebview/1.0.0 Safari/533.3"

So, the .exe knows that the locale should be German...
