Redirect by browser language, both in php and .htaccess gives error: Too many redirects





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}

So I have two languages available for my website, Dutch and German.
I've tried many different ways to redirect my website by browser language, yet they all give the error that my website is redirecting me too often: ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS



I've tried it in php and with the .htaccess file.



My website needs to be redirected by the browsers language.
The Dutch version is in the root.
The German version is in the subfolder /de.
The Dutch version is also the default.



How can I redirect by browser language without any errors/problems?

I'm guessing that you always redirect to the DE version, meaning that you don't check if you're already on DE.



Make it so that you only redirect if your browser language is DE and your website version is NL.



if($browserLanguage === 'DE' && $browserVersion === 'NL')
{
//Redirect to DE version
}


It's just a wild guess tho, since you didn't provide any code.
