Googlebot getting an error

I have the following code as my index.php for my multi-language website. Each available language has a subdirectory.

<?php


if (isset($_POST['URL']) && strlen($_POST['URL']) == 3) {
         header("location: ".$_POST[URL]);
}
else {

    function lixlpixel_get_env_var($Var)
    {
         if(empty($GLOBALS[$Var]))
         {
             $GLOBALS[$Var]=(!empty($GLOBALS['_SERVER'][$Var]))?
             $GLOBALS['_SERVER'][$Var] : (!empty($GLOBALS['HTTP_SERVER_VARS'][$Var])) ? $GLOBALS['HTTP_SERVER_VARS'][$Var]:'';
         }
    }

    function lixlpixel_detect_lang()
    {
         // Detect HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE & HTTP_USER_AGENT.
         lixlpixel_get_env_var('HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE');
         lixlpixel_get_env_var('HTTP_USER_AGENT');

         $_AL=strtolower($GLOBALS['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE']);
         $_UA=strtolower($GLOBALS['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);

         // Try to detect Primary language if several languages are accepted.
         foreach($GLOBALS['_LANG'] as $K)
         {
             if(strpos($_AL, $K)===0)
             return $K;
         }

         // Try to detect any language if not yet detected.
         foreach($GLOBALS['_LANG'] as $K)
         {
             if(strpos($_AL, $K)!==false)
             return $K;
         }
         foreach($GLOBALS['_LANG'] as $K)
         {
             if(preg_match("/[[( ]{$K}[;,_-)]/",$_UA))
             return $K;

The problem is that although in user browsers this works perfectly, with search engines (like Googlebot) the following error is thrown:

I have tried error handling but I'm not a PHP programmer, I'm a CF progammer, so I really needs some help!

Inside a character class, the - denotes a range. In this case _-) in [;,_-)] is interpreted as range (every character between _ and ) inclusive). But _ (0x95) is after ) (0x28), so _-) is an invalid range.

If you mean the three individual characters _, -, and ), escape the -:

[;,_\-)]

Apart from that, Accept-Language is a list of weighted values (see the q parameter). That means just the occurrence of a particular language tag does not necessarily mean that it’s the most preferred language. There might be languages that are more preferred (higher q value) or even not accepted at all (i.e. q=0).

So instead of just looking for the occurrence of a particular language tag, you should better parse the list and find the best match of preferred languages and available languages.
