Dear All,

I have build multilingual website in asp.net c#.

But, its not changing the page direction when changing cultureInfo. I have two languages "en-US" and "ar-SA".

When cultureinfo changes, the text is getting change from English to Arabic, but, not changing the page direction from left to right.

What I have tried:

#region Language/Culture

		string cultureKey = Request.QueryString["l"];
		CultureInfo ci = CultureHelper.GetCulture(cultureKey);
		if (ci == null)
		{
			cultureKey = CultureHelper.DefaultCultureKey;
			ci = CultureHelper.DefaultCulture;
		}

		if(ci != null)
			CookieHelper.SetLanguagePreference(Context, cultureKey);

		#endregion

		string returnUrl = Request.QueryString["ru"];
		if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(returnUrl))
			returnUrl = PageLink.HomePage;

		Response.Redirect(returnUrl);

Can anyone please help me.

Thanks in advance.

You need to change all these places (or at least most of them, this is something that works for me)

C#

protected override void InitializeCulture()

{

if (Request.Form["culture"] != null)

{

String selectedLanguage = Request.Form["culture"];

UICulture = selectedLanguage;

Culture = selectedLanguage;

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture =

CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(selectedLanguage);

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new

CultureInfo(selectedLanguage);

}

base.InitializeCulture();

}
