Translating Control Values via Custom Code

This example demonstrates how to retrieve a translation string by its key and assign it to a label using the Before Show event.

We will use the "CCS_Today" translation key from CCS project resources.

1. Add the Before Show event to the Label control
2. Enter the code below into the event:

   ASP

   Function Label1_BeforeShow(Sender) 
     Sender.Value = CCSLocales.GetText("CCS_Today", Empty)
   End Function

   PHP

   function Label1_BeforeShow(& $sender) {
   global $CCSLocales;
     $Component->SetValue($CCSLocales->GetText("CCS_Today"));
   }

   Perl

   sub Label1_BeforeShow() {
     $Label1->SetValue($CCSLocales->GetText("CCS_Today"));
   }

   ColdFusion

   <!--- Event: BeforeShow. Action: Custom Code. Control: Label1 --->
     <CFSET fldLabel1 = Request.CCSLocales.GetText("CCS_Today")>

   VB.Net

   • Net Framework 1.0, Net Framework 1.1:

     'Label Label1 Event BeforeShow
       Label1.Text = rm.GetString("CCS_Today")

   • Net Framework 2.0:

     'Label Label1 Event BeforeShow
       Label1.Text = Resources.strings.CCS_Today

   C#

   • Net Framework 1.0, Net Framework 1.1:

     //Label Label1 Event BeforeShow
       Label1.Text = rm.GetString("CCS_Today");

   • Net Framework 2.0:

     //Label Label1 Event BeforeShow
       Label1.Text = Resources.strings.CCS_Today;

   Java

   //Label1_BeforeShow 
     e.getControl().setValue(e.getPage().getResourceString("CCS_Today"));
