Hi Samuel,
I've also got the result you mentioned on my local enviornment.
=================
if you want uiculture=auto while still
allowing user to change uiculture, the only way is to set uiculture = auto
in
web.config and not on the page. When uiculture = auto is set in web.config,
we can use application event to override it, but when uiculture=auto is set
in page directive, you cannot override it for declaratively bound resources.
================
I think the difference between the UICulture in @page directive and
web.config maybe the @Page directive's setting will be forced in some
internal time during the page's processing which makes our adjusting in
application level event be overrided. Anyway, IMO, we'd recommend that we
avoiding using the "Auto" setting together with custom culture handling ,
thus there will exist no such potiential conflict.
Thanks,
Steven Cheng

| Hi Tom,
|
| Thanks for your reply. Actually what's in the blog is what I did in my
code
| already. The only difference is that he uses PreRequestHandlerExecute and
I
| used PostAcquireRequestState (no difference)
|
| However, I found the solution: if you want uiculture=auto while still
| allowing user to change uiculture, the only way is to set uiculture =
auto in
| web.config and not on the page. When uiculture = auto is set in
web.config,
| we can use application event to override it, but when uiculture=auto is
set
| in page directive, you cannot override it for declaratively bound
resources.
