Localization :: Textbox Needs To Accept Text From Other Languages?
Nov 8, 2010
how non English language input works with asp.net textboxes.
1. Can a regular asp.net textarea or a textbox accept text from languages other than English?
2. If yes, then how does the user enter non English language text
3. Is there a way to detect what language the user has entered text and make UI changes accordingly. (Ex: Make a button visible if non English text is entered)
4. Can non English text be stored in a varchar column in a SQL Server database? If not, how do I store this text?
I have a page with two textboxes (one for english and one for korean)..
I want users to be able to enter an english word or enter a korean word...
Now I can only enter english in both of them... Even if my keyboard language is switched to Korean.. I can not type in Korean in the Korean text box....
I thought I could simply change this using something like:
as i am working with global resources. however this does not work as the button.text is filled with '<%=GetGlobalResourceObject("Lokalisierung", "resSubmit")%>' (without '').
note: 'Lokalisierung.resx' is my resource file already existing and perfectly working for other "things" here.
i am creating a website in 4 languages. all the labels and buttons should chage as per the users choice. the language details should not be hard coded and it has to come from the databse for each language. Instead of doing it manually(depends upon the language selection fetch the data from the databse and show the labels etc) do we have any inbuild Techno ledge to achieve this in a faster way.
I am working on a web forms application that needs to support multiple languages based on a user's preference. Here are some considerations to keep in mind about the needed solution:
I want to avoid using resource files to store the different text translations because I'd like the ability to change them without having to recompile and deploy the application.
Also the translations ideally need to be adminstratable.
It seems its a considerable amount of effort to add this support to an existing application.
I am developing a multi language site that has 40 languages. The database is relatively small both data and table Count.I need to display the contents in 40 different languages.should I translate the content and store the translated data in the database (40 different times)?
should I translate the content at runtime using a translation service like google translate? or what?its the large number of languages thats scary.
I am working on an ASP.net web application, the application need to display text in English, Chinese and Japanese based on the parameters passed, however the culture settings such as currency symbol, time and number format should remain as en-US locale.
My understanding about ASP.Net localization is a package deal, am I wrong? If I am right, the only way to do this is to roll my own solution?
I have addded some different languages into database table column(NText), then im retrieving the data and display it on the Dropdownlist and Gridview but some of the languages(like Korea, Japan) displays as boxes.
I am not sure where to put this question... but, we have a SQL Server 2005 -> .net 2.?? application that is suppose to be made available to multiple countries and in multiple languages..... can someone give me some direction on how a single datastore can be pulled out and displayed in multiple languages and then those data inputs from multiple languages can be stored in their native language?
I am a little bit of confused here. I translated resx files to lots of languages, and I am looking for the best way to allow user to select it's language.I think that maybe a country selection would be better then a language selection. what do you think?I have a .resx file translation of about 100 languages. What is missing now is an easy to use DropDownList with flags (auto population according to the resx files)I am looking for an easy way to associate the DropDownlList.SelectedIndex to the CultureInfo property, so user will be able select the corect language.Since this is a common use, Is there a ready to use control doing so?
I am getting funny characters when trying to use the text in foreign languages, it comes with # and numbers in between.I am using getraw<string> to get the raw string. How can i use this on aspx page?
I have a web app that I would like to convert to other dialects. I know that a language specialist would have to check it, but am I correct that I can us a tool to convert the english to spanish, chinese, etc?
i have text box, i want to enter age in to that,if i enter "Text" into that that text should not enter into that.only numerics only enter. Alphabetic key must be disable for that text box.
I have a javascript to validate and avoid null values for my form but there are some textboxes that I need to be 'optional'. I tried erasing the validation for province address and province contact in javascript to make it optional, but the problem is whenever I add the values in the database, an error message appears "Input string was not in a correct format". It's in C# This is my present code wherein the provincial address and provincial contact must only be optional:
