i want to consult about something i do.
my website has
3 languages. Hebrew (main), english and russian. i am using a database having a table with the fields: ID, fieldName, 1, 2,
3. where 1 2
3 are the languages.
upon entering the website language 1 (hebrew) is chosen automaticly until you choose another. and saved as a session("currentLanguage").
i wrote a function langstirng whice recieves a field name and prints the value acording to the language in session("currentLanguage"):
Dim languageStrings
Set languageStrings = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
languageStrings.ActiveConnection = MM_KerenDB_STRING
languageStrings.Source = "SELECT fieldName,"¤t_Language&"FROM Multilangual"
languageStrings.CursorType = 0
languageStrings.CursorLocation = 2
languageStrings.LockType = 1
languageStrings.Open()
sub langstring(fieldName)
do while NOT(languageStrings.EOF)
if (languageStrings.fields.item("fieldName").value = fieldName) then
exit do
else
languageStrings.movenext
end if
loop
if (languageStrings.EOF) then
response.Write("***"&fieldName&"***")
else
response.Write(languageStrings.fields.item(currentLanguage+1).value)
end if
languageStrings.movefirst
end sub
and i use it like so: <div>langstring("header")</div>.
i find it stupid that i keep sending the query to the server on any and every page. since the multilangual table does not change "THAT" often i want to somehow save the recordset for the current browsing.
I am looking help for THIS solution, Please.
