ISO 639是國(guó)際標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化組織為各語(yǔ)言所訂定的語(yǔ)言代碼。ISO 639的標(biāo)題是Codes for the representation of names of languages（表示語(yǔ)言名稱的代碼），分為六個(gè)部分。
HTML 的 lang 屬性可用于聲明網(wǎng)頁(yè)或部分網(wǎng)頁(yè)的語(yǔ)言。這對(duì)搜索引擎和瀏覽器是有幫助的。
根據(jù) W3C 推薦標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，您應(yīng)該通過(guò) <html> 標(biāo)簽中的 lang 屬性對(duì)每張頁(yè)面中的主要語(yǔ)言進(jìn)行聲明，比如：
<html lang="en">
...
</html>
在 XHTML 中，采用如下方式在 <html> 標(biāo)簽中對(duì)語(yǔ)言進(jìn)行聲明：
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
...
</html>
ISO 639-1 為各種語(yǔ)言定義了縮略詞。您可以在 HTML 和 XHTML 中的 lang 和 xml:lang 屬性中使用它們。
