You mentioned that you have a XML document as your datasource, right? Is different language content predefined in that xml document? And the content has no relationship to the controls you defined on the page, right?</p> <p>If so, I&#39;m afraid that what you can do is just to write the logic in your page by yourself, read the document from that xml file, and show different language content accroding to the current culture status.</p> <p>If the contents do have relationship to your controls, I think you need to convert your xml file to XSD format, so that you can build the resource file manually.</p> <p>Thanks.</p>http://forums.asp.net/thread/3270184.aspxThu, 02 Jul 2009 03:13:04 GMT4c671506-2930-414c-a40b-8bf57ded5924:3270184rock056rock0560http://forums.asp.net/thread/3270184.aspxhttp://forums.asp.net/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=151&PostID=3270184<p>&nbsp;<span style="FONT-FAMILY:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">I am hoping someone could point me in the right direction with creating a muti-language site which uses XML as its datasource.&nbsp;&nbsp;I am clear on the use of the resource files for controls and other static items for the language support.&nbsp;However, what is the ideal method in selecting which XML file to use for the data content of the selected&nbsp;language?</span></p> <p><span style="FONT-FAMILY:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Any assistance in resolving or understanding this issue would be greatly appreciated.</span></p> <p><span style="FONT-FAMILY:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Thank you.</span></p>
