I know I must be missing something here, but what is the code needed to get the current culture for this current page request.  I am looking at implementing a caching mechanism for my module that supports full localization....

C# code would be the best if possible!

Hi Michel,

The current culture is assigned at pagebase.vb on line 230. You can reference it by Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture and Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture. Check google for an explanation of the differences between these two, if you don't know already.

You can get a localized string from a resource file via DotNetNuke.Services.Localization.GetString, or by using the .net 2.0 strongly-typed resource class at Resources.(ResourceName).

Hope this helps!

But how do you access the current culture of the portal? I am calling a web service that resides in DotNetNuke via IWebLite and it knows my ID, what module and tab I am currently on, but it does not pick a change in the culture when I change the language by clicking on the language bar. All I get is my System culture info.
