Question

I have a c# site which makes use of a lot of images with embedded english text.

How can I use a standard resource file to swap out images depending on the language?

I have a resx file in my App_GlobalResources directory, but I can’t seem to get it plugged into an asp:image control for the imageurl correctly.

Ideas?

UPDATE:

For some further information, here is the image tag code:

<asp:image runat='server' ID='img2' ImageUrl='<%$Resources: Resource, cs_logo %>' /> 

The result on the client side is:

<img id='img2' src='System.Drawing.Bitmap' style='border-width:0px;' /> 

Note that the source is obviously not what I expected…

Answer 1

you can store the url of the image in your resource file and use the following inline code in the control

<asp:Image ImageUrl='<%$resources:Image1 %>' />

or

you can also try to stored the resource as string and set the value to the url location instead of storing the image in the resouce file.
