I knew there would be a way to do it and I knew it would be something to do with the CultureInfo of the session.
Here is a method I wrote to return a set of key values for each month:
public IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<int, string>> GetAllMonths() { for (int i = 1; i <= 12; i++) { yield return new KeyValuePair<int, string>(i, DateTimeFormatInfo.CurrentInfo.GetMonthName(i)); } }
Just to demonstrate, I used it in my ASP.NET MVC app:
<%: Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.DobMonth, new SelectList(Model.GetAllMonths(), "Key", "Value", Model.DobMonth)) %>
Which outputs the following HTML:
<select id="DobMonth" name="DobMonth"> <option selected="selected" value="1">January</option> <option value="2">February</option> <option value="3">March</option> <option value="4">April</option> <option value="5">May</option> <option value="6">June</option> <option value="7">July</option> <option value="8">August</option> <option value="9">September</option> <option value="10">October</option> <option value="11">November</option> <option value="12">December</option> </select>
OH YEAH !
ReplyDeleteThanks man ! I've been looking for this :)
i had to add "using System.Globalization;"
at the beginning of the class...
( I'm not in ASP, only in c# though)
- Any chance the same method could return the month names in french ? :)
Assuming the users' culture isn't already French you could force it by replacing CurrentInfo with GetInstance(new CultureInfo("FR-fr")). So the first bit of code would be:
ReplyDeletepublic IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<int, string>> GetAllMonths()
{
for (int i = 1; i <= 12; i++)
{
yield return new KeyValuePair<int, string>(i, DateTimeFormatInfo.GetInstance(new CultureInfo("FR-fr")).GetMonthName(i));
}
}
Thank you sir. I used this for Web Form just fine!
ReplyDeletethank you so much!
