<asp:Label runat="server" ID="label1" meta:resourcekey="labelResource1"></asp:label>

How can I localize the content placed inside <p> tags or any <h1> , <h2> tags ?

Answer 1

This link provides an answer to your question on how to localize content placed inside html tags. You can store it in resource file and use it in html mark up as <%=Resources.WebResources.YourText%> as described there by VinayC where Resources.WebResources is strongly typed resource class generated by Visual Studio resource generator.Please let me know if this answers your question.

Answer 2

The control that needs to be localized will have to run serverside.

You could place a <asp:Label/> or <asp:Panel/> inside the HTML <p> . A label will render to a <span/> , and a panel will render to a <div/> .

It is also possible to run the p at serverside : <p runat="server" id="p1"></p> .
