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.

tool.

Hi I need to make at multilanguage language site, and for that I need to identify the users, and register there choice off language. For that i imagine using cookies, since this is the only way to identify the users. But from what I read search engines ignore cookies, and at the same time I would like the users to be able to send links in there choice of language to there friends, so I would like this sort of url scheme.

Hi, I'm a little bit familiar with site cultures and ressources with .NET 2.0. However, I'm wondering how this following scenario could be achieved: My site supports 2 cultures (fr, en). The site's physical structure is in english. But to be more search engine friendly, when the site is displayed in french, the directory structure ideally must be in french (not http://test.com/friend/delete.aspx but http://test.com/ami/effacer.aspx)....
