By now you have the basics for creating a DotNetNuke module.  The only question we have left to address is, how do we package this all up so that we can install it on another server?

The file we are going to create is called the Program Assembly (PA) and is a zip file that contains all the files that are needed for your module on the server and a file with a DNN extension that defines the module so that all the configuration options we put in DotNetNuke to define the module can be placed on the DotNetNuke installation we will install the PA into.

One of the projects that I’m working on is for a company targeting the Canadian marketplace.  These sites have to be written in both French and English for that country, which means there is a fair bit of internationalization written into our code.

Dealing with the information in the database and the strings on the page was easy enough.  But we also have to deal with images.  The way we deal with images is by detecting the language settings of the browser and setting the Theme property of the Page.
