  Multilanguage Sitemaps

  Apr 25, 2007 12:11 PM|LINK

  I'm developing a website with four differents sitemaps (eng, fra,it, spa), each one refering to its own xml.

   

   <siteMap>
       <providers>
          <add name="MenuCAS" type="System.Web.XmlSiteMapProvider" siteMapFile="Web1.Sitemap"/>
          <add name="MenuENG" type="System.Web.XmlSiteMapProvider" siteMapFile="Web2.Sitemap"/>
          <add name="MenuFRA" type="System.Web.XmlSiteMapProvider" siteMapFile="Web3.Sitemap"/>
          <add name="MenuITA" type="System.Web.XmlSiteMapProvider" siteMapFile="Web4.Sitemap"/>
      </providers>
      </siteMap>
  

   

  I add the code in the main page (index.aspx) of the site which is common for all the languages:

     
   

  <asp:Menu ID="Menu1" runat="server"  DataSourceID="SiteMapDataSource1"  EnableViewState="False" Orientation="Horizontal" OnMenuItemClick="Menu1_MenuItemClick" CssClass=no DynamicEnableDefaultPopOutImage="False" StaticEnableDefaultPopOutImage="False">
              
              <DataBindings>
                  <asp:MenuItemBinding DataMember="SiteMapNode" />
              </DataBindings>
              <StaticMenuItemStyle  CssClass="padres" ItemSpacing=12/>
              <DynamicMenuStyle CssClass="hola"/>
              <DynamicMenuItemStyle CssClass=hola2 ItemSpacing=3/>
          </asp:Menu>
          <asp:SiteMapDataSource ID="SiteMapDataSource1"
          SiteMapProvider="<%$dir%>"
          runat="server" ShowStartingNode="False"/>

   The trouble comes when I have to change the SiteMapProvider value, because I have a global variable with the selected language. I don't know the way to put this var into the atribute or if it's possible to do that in .NET

  Some help will be very appreciated.

  Saluts.
