Resource files --> 'Classic' ASP

[Zark3]

Hi all,

Probably not the best place to ask this, but considering I'm more of a
..NET-guy thinking in .NET-patterns, here goes anyway.

I was handed an ASP-project to internationalize (read: create
multi-lingual user interface). Should this have been a .NET-site, I
would have easily created some resource files and substitute every bit
of text with a label that reads from either global or local resources.
So far so good, I would have been able to do this no problem.
However... this is 'classic' asp. Does ASP also support anything like
this? Where should I look to start tackling this? Should I include an
XML file that is separate for each page (think: local resources) and
then parse the XML accordingly or are there simpler ways to be walked?

TIA,
Chris

Within a classic ASP environment, you're probably going to need to look
for 3rd party tools to for globalization.
