Sooner or later, each of web-site developers faces with a problem of multilanguage support. ASP.NET environment has embedded features to load string resources depending on the language of a current user. The programmer, however, should solve a number of problems on his own, for example, updating a text on a page and string properties of control elements, or changes of images on a page if they have language-dependent elements. Besides, there are some situations when it is necessary to locate radically various contents on a page for different locations.

The MultilingualControl assembly we offer you contains the classes that accomplish most routine tasks concerning multilinguage support. The main class (MultilingualControl) carries the basic functionality. Depending on the language you choose, it will load necessary resources from XML-files, update the values of control elements properties and, if necessary, reload its own contents if you want to have radically various contents for different languages. The rest of the classes carry auxiliary functions.

If you use this assembly, addition / deletion of languages as well as text modification become an easy task that can be accomplished without recompiling the project.
