Store changed via php code

Is there an option to change store in php depending on some criteria and reload a whole page?

So for example when php detects the language is set as italian it changes the store from store1 to store2 ?

So a php code if language=italian change current store to store2 ?

Any idea?

Yes is possible

The browser's configured language is available somewhere in PHP (getenv('HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'), I think). I know that osCommerce attempts to use it to select the store language to be used. However, many people apparently just leave their browser messages etc. in English, so it doesn't do much good. Once you have the language, you could check if you have a store for that language, and redirect to that store with PHP header("Location: ......");. Just be sure the code is before any output to the browser, or you'll get a "Headers already sent" error message.

Is more safe to get the language by IP address

OK, the IP address is in Brussels, Belgium. Is the user speaking Dutch/Flemish or French/Walloon?

Nice discussion, guys, but it seems that you did not understand my question.

Well, in fact, it is my fault, I did not express myself sufficiently. I mean when an user change his or her language in the opencart store, then also a store (with its subdomain) is changed based on the language this user has chosen.

And why exactly do you want this? I can't seem to imagine any decent reason myself.
