Multi Language Site

I am currently creating a multi-language site using ASP .NET and was wondering what people think the best way to do this. Keeping a session variable of the users's choice? Cookies?

Thank you in advance for any advice, comments, help.

This newsgroup is for classic ASP. None of the .net is talked about here.

naughty.

Regardless - of the technology, storing a cookie for non personally
identifiable information is in my opinion the best way. Takes the load
off the server and gives it to the browser and is not a security risk.

Storing your info in XML would also be beneficial to you so you'd only
have to make the framewrok. This may help you out.
