Hello,

I'm creating a new module for my company, and try to localize it using resx file.

I want to make run this line :

<

asp:Literal ID="myLit" runat="server" Text='<%$ Resources:myLit.Text %>' ></asp:Literal>

I've create a App_LocalResources in the project.

Doing the same thing in a basic web project works well. But using it in DNN I've got the message :

The resource object with key 'myLit.Text' was not found

 

Do you have any idea ?

 

Thank

please read the localization documentation for DNN. DNN uses its own localization, and is not compatible with asp.net 2.0 localization. This is because dnn already had localization in the asp.net 1.1. version

Anyway, the way to do what you want is this:

<asp:Literal ID="myLit" runat="server" resourcekey="myLit.Text" ></asp:Literal>

Next make sure that you have this file avalailable:

/DesktopModules/[yourmodulename]/App_LocalResources/[YourControlName].ascx.resx

and make sure it contains the proper key / value pair

DNN will automatically add the correct localized string in the proper location. Admins and Host will be able to change the resx file from Admin > Languages > LanguageEditor and Host > Languages > LanguageEditor

Thank for your anwser.

I finally use = Localization.GetString("myLit", LocalResourceFile)%> 

<%

directly in the ascx code.

I think the used of the DNN resourcekey only works for Text and Tooltip , that's right ?

I want to localize ErrorMessage in a validator et resourcekey seem don't work ... so I use Code behind file ...

resourcekey works with all visible controls, and should also work with validators
