hm, ist seams that if got a problem. I used:

if ($userlang == 'XX') {
    XLPage('XX','PmWikiXX.XLPageCookbook');
    XLPage('XX','PmWikiXX.XLPage');
    }
This seams to work, but only if the url has the extension ?userlang=de. 
It seams that rather than to ask for the userlang variable I have to ask 
vor the value in the cookie. Is this correct? And if how would I do that?
Do you have any suggestions?
