(OK, this is taken from the forums, as I couldnt get a good answer:)

I am populating dropdownlists in a module using the DNN List. How do you localize (either select the proper list name based on localization, or have two values for each item on a list???)

I was thinking of a temp solution:

create identical lists in the required languages and call the lists by a combination of a name with a suffix of the language.

Then when I use the ctlEntry.GetListEntryInfoCollection(listname, value, parentname)

to call the list, I create the list name by appending the right locale as suffix, so as an example listname = listname + locale might be:

.

Its not a great idea, but do you think it will do the job??

could someone help with the code to get the locale??

thanks

Do you want to store your list in a table or in an xml file? Both solutions are possible with a bit of development...
