I am building modules which support Localization. I have several modules which have forms for various purposes. These forms have required fields as well as regular expression validators. I have already localized all labels and text based controls in the form but am having a hard time finding examples of how to localize the error message for ASP.net validation controls in DotNetNuke modules.

Can someone please help me out, Thanks a ton in advance!

In the validator markup, add the 'resourcekey' attribute with its key ending witht he suffix '.ErrorMessage. For example:

resourcekey = "valWidthNumeric.ErrorMessage"

In the resource file corresonding to the user control, add a new string for the desired error message with its key being "valWidthNumeric.ErrorMessage".

For more complex validation error messages, you may also set them in the codefile/codebehind using one of the overloads of the Localization.GetString method.

This localizes the ErrorMessage and the Text attributes.  How can I stop it from localizing the Text?

I created a method that sets the Text to "*" for all the validators on the page, and I call that method in Page_Init, Page_Load, LoadSettings(), and Page_PreRender - but the localized Text is still there.
