 New Comment:

that is not how most web sites work.  
most web sites work by having a VERY SIMPLE dropdown listbox that shows you what language is
selected and allows you to select a different language.

at least knowing what language you are in would be helpful for people who work with multiple
languages if you are not going to change the methodology.

the way things are now is causing confusion with more than one person.

That drop down is to the view the page in another language... note the little text 
next to it "view this page in". If you change it to Brazilian Portugese and then 
click the drop down again, you'll notice you can view the page in English.

Description:
------------
the php web site has a problem.
http://us.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.multiple.php
all over PHP site it says it is in Brazilian Portugese, yet the language code is en (English).  My
machine is US English.  go figure.  in the documentation selection boxes it does not list English as
a language, but it lists Brazilian Portugese.  I will bet that most people don't know what
Brazilian Portugese is.  but they know what English is.  and that's what this language is in
despite the title.
please fix.

Test script:
---------------
install US English version of windows.
http://us.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.multiple.php
look at language dropdown box

Expected result:
----------------
the word English for en language code on web site anywhere language is mentioned

Actual result:
--------------
I find the words Brazilian Portugese all over web site anywhere language is mentioned.
