I don't know wich server language you are using

you can store your datas in a database separating what are general datas and local datas in two tables

then you can use a function to display the language

for ASP NET / VB NET :

-----------------------------

Public Class Culture

Public Shared Function DisplayCulture(Optional ByVal ci As String = "en-us") As CultureInfo

Dim CultInfo As CultureInfo

Try
CultInfo = New CultureInfo(ci)
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultInfo
Catch
CultInfo = New CultureInfo("en-us")
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultInfo
End Try

End Function

End Class

-----------------------------

then in you global.asax

-----------------------------

Sub Session_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

session("lang") = "en-us"

Culture.DisplayCulture(Session("lang").ToString)

end Sub

-----------------------------


and you can definite the session as you like , with browser language or if the user presse a flag ect....

then you change the session value

session("lang") = UserLangValue
