Re: Suggestions for an effective approach to use for designing a form

aquaren — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT

Globaliztion can be a tricky thing to implement and can get very complex in a hurry. It certainly becomes easier if you have a finite list of cultures to support. I would suggest first doing some research on the globaliztion features already within the .NET framework. This may give you some worthwhile ideas on where to begin.

you can find a wealth of knowledge here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb688096.aspx

My second suggestion would be to look into the Strategy design pattern:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategy_pattern

http://www.dofactory.com/patterns/patternstrategy.aspx

The pattern's intent is to take an algorithm (say formatting a phone number based on culture) and encapsulating it in an object that can then be injected at runtime. This can be also be used to create create classes specific to each form layout - such as USLayoutStrategy or TaiwanLayoutStrategy.

Thanks for the reply. I copied the exact settings you supplied to the web.config file in the production environment, but as you can see, there is no change.

Any other ideas?

What is the Best Solution for Multilingual Web Site ?

gopi_mtp — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT

Hi All,

We are developing a call centre web application. The client now requesting it in a multilingual application. But we are using the resource file concept (.Resources) for storing the Key and value (english key, and respective language text). That is while opening of each form we will iterate all the control and change its texts into the respective multilingual text reading from the resource file generated by us.

But my doubt is , whether is this the right method to develop a Multilingual Web Site ? or any other way to achieve the same...

I heard, the with the use of Satelitte assemblies, we can develop multilingual applications, but i have no idea about that.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in Advance.

With Best Regards,

Gopi. V

Globalization & Localization Problem(language Translation)

X-treme — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 04:00:00 GMT

Hi All,

I have a website making in asp.net which is full data driven. I am using sql server 2005 as the backend database. All data is coming from the database. I want to make my website multilingual. I have gone through the globalization tutorial where a table is used. The resx file is in xml format where we used the name value pair as a static content. I have some question regarding this.

How can i make my website multilingual dynamically ?
What will be database structure ?
How I translate the data which is in english to other language ?
What will be the logic of making multilingual website ?

Please help to overcome this problem. If sample code is being posted it will hep very much. Please help me to build the logic of making it dynamic.

Calling a method in a code behind from a different Control (Globalization)

pancakegeels — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 04:00:00 GMT

I have a site I am trying to globalize, using masterpages, and in this case in VB

I have some flags at the footer of the page (in a control, in this case flags.ascx) - and if you click on that flag - the page should switch to the appropriate language. I have tried being adding lashes of 'Public' statements to everything involved, but that doesnt seem to bring it into scope.

I am presently refreshing the page after setting a session variable for the culture selected - then overriding the InitializeCulture method and setting the variable. It feels like a nasty hack.

So..

1. I would like to do is call the method renderText (which sets the text for all the elements of the page) instead of refreshing the page. This would allow any form elements to remain untampered.

2. Alternatively if there is a way to avoid using Session data and set the running web app session for this user to be a given culture indefinately (but not permenantly) - that too would be awesome.

Sorry for the long read, and thanks in advance for anything you can throw my way.

Is there any ready to use declarative framework for creating multilingual ASP.net applications.

Globalization localization question

JGriffiths — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 04:00:00 GMT

or should that be "Globalisation localisation question"?

Okay, I have just inherited an ASP.NET application and am charged with making it multi-lingual. I understand the concept of Resource files but am just wondering how best to go about the following specific problem.

In the ASPX page I have the following example:

<p>You have logged on as the account <strong><asp:Literal ID="acct1" runat="server"></asp:Literal></strong>.</p>

Now, if this did not have any formatting, I'd have my Resource string to be (in English):

"You have logged on as the account {0}." and at run-time I would put the Account name into the {0} place holder.

However, this has to be displayed inside a <strong/> element.

Two things that worry me:

I don't particularly feel comfortable putting HTML formatting markup into a Resource file....what if we replace our HTML front end with something else that requires different formatting commands?
The Resource file is XML, so presumaly I can't store "<strong>" but would have to store something like "<strong>", but then that wouldn't render properly

Any advise would be much appreciated

Al.exe error on embedding multiple .resources files in a satellite assembly

Thiru Srinivasan — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 04:00:00 GMT

I am trying to generate a satellite assembly by embedding multiple .resource files, where al.exe is reporting following error when no of resource files are > 2.

To check if its problem with .resource files, i changed the order of the input files, but it’s always reporting error for the 3^rd file only.

However as per the MSDN, the al.exe must be able to support multiple .resources files.
I tried even sepearting the resource files with semicolan(;) instaed of comma(,), but it isn't working.

Am I missing something here?

Any pointers on this would be highly appreciated.
