Localization : Working on one page and not working on the other

Question

User-134311585 posted

Hi,

I am developing a multicultural web sites and using resource files.

 

The page that works fine with resource file and the one that does not work uses same masterpage.

working.aspx.resx

working.aspx.en.resx

----

notworking.aspx.resx

notworking.aspx.tr.resx

 

These are the files in my App_LocalResources folder. I am changing the cultures using this code block

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = thecultureinfo;
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = thecultureinfo;

this code block works fine in one page and not works in the other one.

 

is this a bug or am I doing something wrong ? any ideas ?

Is This ASP.net Project or MVC Application ?

If asp.net then use IntializeCulture method of page to change culture.

Also make sure that page is at proper location.

it is not an MVC project. regular asp.net 4.0.

I have already override the InitializeCulture method but the problem is that there are two pages with same structure. one page works fine but the other does not. why ? is it because of the working page has Datalists and gridviews that use localization inside headers ?

There's not enough information in your post to provide an answer.  You have 3 different cultures, default, en, and tr. there is no indication of which culture is not working.  First, I would view the resource files and make sure that all 3 default, en, and tr contain the text you expect.

Check for Culture and UICulture attributes in the @Page attribute in the aspx file and remove them if they are present.
