Hi All,
I'm looking for some ideas about implementing a simple localization scheme or sorts.

Have a web site where database is shared by various clients. Database has a field used in search criteria called "Category". A prospective client would like the Label for the field to be shown as "Artistic Discipline" to visitors to their part of the web site. Other Clients share the same web pages, so I don't want to just change it for them.

What I'm thinking of doing is replacing the word "Category" on the web pages with something like <%=Translate("Category") %>. I will then create some kind of data store (probably a formated text file), Load the "dictionary" for this client into a row set, Find "Category" and return the translation, "Artist Discipline" in this case. There are other places where clients would like their own jargon as well, so this sounds like something fairly simple that would make for happy clients.

Anyone done something like this? Any cautions you would like to offer or an alternate approach?


Kind Regards,
