get client user culture info

[Guest]

Hi;

How do I get the client user culture? I need to get the names for the
weeks/months, num days/week, months/year, days/month, etc to display date
selections to the user correctly.

Hi David,

ASP.NET 2.0 has a new feature called 'Auto-Culture Handling': it maps
Accept-Language headers to CultureInfo objects and attaches them to the
current thread. Auto-Culture handling can be enabled for individual pages
by including 'Culture="auto" UICulture="auto"' attributes in the @ Page
directive. It can be enabled site-wide by including a <globalization
culture="auto" uiCulture="auto"/> element in web.config.

Then you can access the DateTimeFormatInfo.Current instance to get the
various info you needed.

Hope this helps. Please feel free to post here if anything is unclear.

Regards,
Walter Wang
