Localization :: Can Call Initialize Culture Of Every Page From The Global.asax
Jan 24, 2011
Can I call Initialize Culture of every page from the Global.asax?
Every page looks at the query string of "?lang=##" and sets the language accordingly. Since all pages do this, is there a place where I can implement it once and all pages will load it?
My site has around 200 pages and I dont want to implement the code in everypage. Would take too long for maintenance and to implement. It would be more convinient if I could simply put it in a function that all pages call when loading.
In my company app they are doing the following. I do not understand that what initialize does? Do we need to Initialize assemblies before using them? and what kind of assemblies needs to be initialized?
I have a very simple bilingual site with a link at the bottom that will allow users to switch between the two languages (english/french). the the web.config I have the following line:
<globalization culture="auto" uiCulture="auto" />
This allows for whatever the users browser culture is to be the default lanauge but I'd still like the ablility for them to click a bottom button to toggle. whats the best what to go about doing this?
my objective is i want to log all those exceptions on my aspx pages which are handled or unhandled. To do this do i need to write my method in global.asax or how can i do that?
I need to change culture of the specific aspx page bases on the main user's culture.I am able to fetch the data that which culture main user have.But some how I am not able to set the same culture for that aspx page.I had written the below code for that.
[Code]....
But that is not working it sets the default culture of the browser.
I'm trying to install a 301 redirect where the instruction is as follows:
"In my Global.asax file (You can add this to your site from Visual Web Developer or Visual Studio by selecting File->New), In the Application_BeginRequest event, I added a call to the following code:"
The code is at bottom if needed. When it says "added a call to the following code:" does that mean something more than just putting the code inside the Application_BeginRequest section of my global.asax? For example, here's what that section looks like in my site:
I have a method in one class file with defination like this which gets the user id of logged person.
public string GetUserID(HttpRequest req) { .... }
I need to call this method in global.asax and save that value in session. I need to use this session value i need to use this Session value and assign that to label in Masterpage. I did not use global.asax before. And what should be the input to method... i have seen only Request is have the returntype HttpRequest. So i thought of giving that.
I am using PageMethods in my pages, and we have some requirement in which some maintenance process happened in certain time span, so in that time we set on DB flag consider as True False, I have written my code in Global.asax where in application_AcquireRequestState(...,...) Method I am checking the flag and depanding upon the flag I am redirecting my Page to one Maintenance dummy page, so application_AcquireRequestState() method working properly when page get postback or I am using thru any server control, but when I am using Asynchronous call using PageMethods in application_AcquireRequestState I am getting exception, Can anyone solve my problem I am using VB.NET.
how can to get culture info or just culture name from the datetime string e.g i have strings like: "16/02/2008" or "23/02/2008 " can i know the culture name from the above datetime strings?
i have three master pages and some contents pages in my project.
in content page i have wrote below script:
[Code]....
And i have a language flags in my master page. so i have created image button for language flag to perform on click action. where On click of language flag (polish) i like to change the content (English) of my page as per the selected flag click.
hence i have wrote in master page:
<asp:ImageButton ID="ImageButton1" runat="server" ImageUrl="../common/images/pol.gif" AlternateText="Polish" /> And in code behind --- ImageButton1_Click Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("pl-PL") Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("pl-PL") Response.Write(Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture) Dim geturl As String geturl = Request.Url.ToString() Response.Redirect(geturl)
here the geturl is print with "pl-PL" but the page content is printed with English language.
I want to change page content also as per flag seletion.
I have an ASP.NET application where i am tracking my applicaion level erros using golabl.asax On_Error method.I will send an email to my id when there is some error happened in the site(ie :" when the application _error being invoked) Now From my global.asax's Application_OnError event, how can i get the URL of the page where this error was raised ?
I am categorizing my website page to be defined as Secured & unsecured (ie few page on http & other on https) in Global.asax. Now, Product.aspx page has to be defined as unsecured. But I just couldn't make out how to define this since it is called with a querystring. If I simply define it as "Product.aspx", output is coming incorrect ie I need to define it as "Product.aspx?pid=123". But since there are lot many products, so I couldn't define it like this.
When it gets to the page servererror/default.aspx I need it to send an e-mail to me with the exception.message
Here's what i'm trying but it won't work
Sub Page_load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Dim LastError As Exception Dim ErrMessage As String LastError = Server.GetLastError() ErrMessage = LastError.Message
I'm wanting to adjust this code to pull the theme name from a database table, instead of just manually assigning a theme in the file. This way a site administrator can set the theme dynamically. If never done this with a global.asax file, so I'm not sure what the best way is to accomplish it?
Here's the code that needs tweaked:
[Code]....
The database table could be "ThemeName" with rows ID & Theme. If performing this in the global.asax file will cause any big performance issues.
I have a ASP.NET/C# web application. There is an object instantiated in the Global.asax that I'll call g_objVariable. What I would like to do is reference one of it's properties in the ASP.NET page itself, like this.
The g_objVariable's Prop1 value is: <%=AppNameSpace.Global.g_objVariable.Prop1.ToString()%>
I get it to see the reference, but it keeps telling me that due to it's protection level I can't access it. I have it set to 'internal static'. What would be the least level I could set it to, but still allow the page to access it?
My website needs hit counter. i have created hit count in global.asax page, which works fine. Now i wanted to display hit count in all pages. so, do i have to use mater page or function to all in every page.
I know there is a couple answered questions on here regarding "request scoped" globals, but I want to nit-pick on something specifically and maybe squeeze some extra enlightenment out of one or two of you.I have an ASP.NET C# Website and a static Dictionary of objects (loaded from DB once on Application start). Each page request will need to do a lookup in the Dictionary (based on a key derived from the request url/etc) and get the appropriate object.The issue is I'm trying to maximize efficiency by reducing the lookups to the Dictionary per Request. Doing just a single lookup within a Page itself is easy enough and I can pass the object to sub controls, etc too.. but global.asax is separate from the Page and it also needs to use the object (in Application_BeginRequest and Session_Start).
So is doing a Dictionary lookup once in Application_BeginRequest, once (when necessary) in Session_Start and once in the Page negligible speed wise, even if there are many requests coming in every second?I would like it if I could just have a Request scoped global variable that I can easily call upon.. the only one I see available though is HttpContext.Current.Items and that is a Dictionary itself.Am I beingridiculously nit-picky with my concern over efficiency? or will these milliseconds (nanoseconds?) get me in the long run when more and more requests are being made?
PS. I currently only have around 100 objects in the Dictionary although this may increase in the future.
Looking for best practice focused answers here with explanations.
Should the presentation layer of an ASP.Net app catch and handle exceptions thrown from the business layer, or should these be allowed to bubble out, where they can all be logged and handled uniformly in the Global.ascx's Application_Error handler?
Actually I'm not a professional in ASP.NET. I'm going a project that needs to support two languages (Russian and English).I've already completed the main parts and the site is now 95% functional.However, now I need to enable language selection on the site.
I'm going to do it with DropDownList, where a user chooses one language from DropDownList, the content must change to particular language.
All texts are displayed using server controls like Labels and Literals. Links are in Hyperlink or LinkButton.
I did some research to handle with my condition, but no-one suits on my condition, because I've almost completed the application. How to generate Global Recourse files for controls on the page?
I want to set culture info for my full application. where're i say datetime.now, it should give datetime based on my cultureinfo i set. how do i do it?
