Obtain current culture ???

[cmrchs]

Hi,

I try to obtain the current culture of a server by executing :

string str = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.ToString();

Executing this in a console-applicastion results in the correct string (e.g. "en-AU")
but when executing in ASP.NET does the command always return "en-US" ???

How come ?
How can I make sure it does return the correct cultureInfo ?

thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,

Current culture on server-side are always set to default culture (english
us). The value is also reset from request to request.
In global.asax you can assign the CurrentCulture thread with some mechanism
(involving client-side cookies or as Jerome said
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture)

There is also the uiCulture attribute of the <globalization> element
in web.config, if you want to set the culture for the appDomain.
