Hi,

Your problem is, that RealURL (that you are using, right?) only looks at
the linkVars in the standard setups, so it does not know about the
language cookie. For that you probably have to use a hook or a userfunc
in the configuration.

PS: I strongly recommend to use linkVars=L(0|4) for security reasons
(url spamming).
