We develop asp.net webforms using visual studio 2008. For multilingual support, we translate all our text. However, when designing, we usually just enter the english text and come back to translation later (it interrupts flow of work otherwise).
I've added a "ToTranslate" tag in the options. Adding //ToTranslate: something in C# code correctly adds the entry to the Task List. I haven't however figured out how to do the same for aspx and ascx files (where most of our user text lives).
Inserting <%-- //ToTranslate: something --%> or <%-- ToTranslate: something --%> doesn't work.
Any ideas?
It seems to me that it works fine if you put the delimiters <% and %> on a line by themselves. What I did was this: go to Tools menu and click on Options, then under Environment -> Task List add a new ToTranslate token. Click OK to accept the change. Back on the ASPX page I added the comments on a line by themselves and the code delimiters on lines by themselves.
