Hi their,

I would like to localize just a contact page with spanish and german languague and may be in the future add dutch language to it.

I have tried all tricks but it does not seem to work. How can I make a page have multiple translation and links to the translations based on the query string?

Any sample or help will be great.

Thanks,
Wasay

Thanks Sebastian for the reply. I was hoping for a bit different sample or example rather than a module approach. I have a page and the resource files at:

 /Portals/0/Pages/ContactForm.aspx
/App_GlobalResources/ContactForm.resx
/App_GlobalResources/ContactForm.en-US.resx
/App_GlobalResources/ContactForm.es-es.resx

 in the ContactForm.aspx file I have a script tag with vb language which has the below code in page_load function...

**************************************

 'Page_Load Function
displayFirstName = GetGlobalResourceObject("ContactForm", "lblFirstName")
displayLastName = GetGlobalResourceObject("ContactForm", "lblLastName")

 If (Len(displayFirstName) > 0) Then

 lblFirstName.Text = displayFirstName
 lblLastName.Text = displayLastName

End If
 **************************************

How can I get the function GetGlobalResourceObject to retrieve the correct lang value from the resx file? Based on the query string I can change the thread lang dynamically without effecting the browser language option so that a user is not involve to make or adjust anything in the browser. **************************************

'Page_PreInit function before the page_load function

 Dim lang As System.Globalization.CultureInfo

 If IsPostBack Then

 'Add logic here for query string manipulation
 lang = New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("es-es")

 Else

 lang = New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")

 End If

 System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = lang
 System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = lang
**************************************
**************************************
 'resx file partial data value

First Name

Last Name
 
**************************************
 Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong in this process? Thanks, Wasay

Thanks,

The issue is this is not a module, this is a independent custom page which is posting to a support ticketing system by utilizing iframe.

It's more like it can be treated as asp.net page rather than dotnetnuke but it's receding in the web.config settings of dotnetnuke..

The page does not have dotnetnuke master page (skin) or any of the dotnetnuke imports, it's a page on it's own and I am just wondering if web.config is the reason where I cannot read the resx file.

It seems to be able to read the App_GlobalResource file only issue is that it's null values.

Do I have to compile something after adding resx files to App_GlobalResources?

Thanks,
Wasay
