    <p>In my application I have paragraphs with mixed static text and HTML formatting and links. I'm looking for a good localization solution that keeps resources decoupled from markup. Let's say we have the following paragraph:</p> <pre><code>&lt;p&gt;Let's have a &lt;a href="someURL"&gt;cup of coffee&lt;/a&gt; and get &lt;b&gt;energized&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; </code></pre> <p>Using the standard resx solution forces me to embed the HTML markup and the link destinations in the resx string. This is bad because it couples markup/CSS/app structure with resources.</p> <p>The next best thing is to split the paragraph such that localized content never contains markup. In the above example I would have 4 para fragments: 1) "Let's have a" as plain text 2) "cup of coffee" as a link 3) "and get" as plain text 4) "energized" as bold text</p> <p>The problem with this solution is that fragmentation makes maintenace of resources a complete nightmare plus it forces a certain order of the paragraph fragments which might not fit the grammar of all cultures. For instance, in the translated language the proper translation might be</p> <pre><code>&lt;p&gt;Let's get &lt;b&gt;energized&lt;/b&gt; with a &lt;a href="someURL"&gt;cup of coffee&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; </code></pre> <p>I don't think I can quite get away with not embedding markup into resources and that might not be a huge deal. Using proper markup/CSS (span, div, id, class) I can create abstractions that would lessen the impact of coupling.</p> <p>What do I do about the link URLs though? Thanks,</p> <p>Stefan</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
