| Dutch (Standard) | French (Standard) | Norwegian (Nynorsk) |
| English (Australian) | French (Swiss) | Portuguese (Brazilian) |

| Note | The variable Server.ColdFusion.SupportedLocales is initialized at startup with a comma-delimited list of the locales that ColdFusion and the operating system support. GetLocale( ) will return an entry from that list. SetLocale will fail if called with a locale name not on that list. |
