Hey everyone,

I'm facing this issue not just on firefox, the behavior is also available on ie8. This is pretty upsetting to me since i'm using the language for several of my modules and the message returned is:

A critical error has occurred. Input string was not in a correct format.

It seems that System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.Name or   System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture are returning NULL values on language switch.

This issue is not only being displayed in Firefox. I have faced it also in IE8.

It's pretty frustrating, since i'm using language detection in most of my  modules, and they are currently throwing

A critical error has occurred. Input string was not in a correct format.

 due to the fact that System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.ToString() or System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.Name.ToString() are both throwing Nulls when called for a different language than the default one.

When do we expect this issue to be fixed???

I propose a workaround for those who are facing my issue to use the following method:

Request.RawUrl.Contains("en-US")

this will test if your current url has the language code in it.

Sorry for the other posts, the page was hanging...

Thanks Sebastian!

I'm quite surprised no one else has been anxious to get this issue addressed.

what's weird about this issue is that some localization load correctly and some do not. For example i have the login page loading some of the controls correctly while the user profile doesn't load any.

If anyone has a quick fix for this i need it badly.
