Using URL Parameters to set Application Culture

The simplest way to use the URL parameter is to add a “Language” hyperlink to the page and set the link to redirect back to the same page with the URL parameters “culutreui” and “culture” set.  Use the Properties dialog to set the redirection.

Here, the Redirect URL properties have been set for the three hyperlinks as follows:

Language

Redirect URL

English

ShowCategoriesTable.aspx?cultureui=EN-US

German

ShowCategoriesTable.aspx?cultureui=de-DE

Italian

ShowCategoriesTable.aspx?cultureui=it-IT

The browser in the above image shows how the culture was set to German by clicking on the German link.
