Hazarding a guess, you need to look at f:view locale="#{bean.language}" where the language property is
something like "en", "es" or "fr" and you have files like messages_fr.properties and these are supported-locale's
in faces-config.

The bean should be session scoped and you also need to change the locale in the view when the user selects
a new language:



Also it's recommended to use h:selectOneMenu onchange="submit()" to synchronously refresh the page.

Please do not post the same question more than once. It confuses people. I'm going to lock the other copy.
