Specify the language in a website

Question

how should I set the locale in my site? I mean, in a test for websites it says I'm not setting the language..

I tried with html this way:

<meta http-equiv="content-language" content="es">

but someone said is not the way, even the test still says the language was not set

use In w3c Using the meta element to specify the document-wide default language is obsolete. Consider specifying the language on the root element instead. — Tamil Selvan C, May 22 '13 at 18:07

If you want multilingual web site. Then you need Create a string array with values. And load by language prefix. When spanish You will load string es.php when english you will load string file en.php.
