Internationalization of text boxes

picaso

Hi,<br />
<br />
I am stuck with an internationalization problem. I have some static text in a text box along with some javascript. I have prepared a .properties file as well. Due to the presence of javascript i cannot associate the text with a key directly. Can somebody suggest how to do this???<br />
<br />
The code inside the text box:<br />
<br />
Report description **<br />
<br />
<script type="text/javascript"><br />
<br />
function collapseFunction( zielId,zielContainerId){<br />
if (document.getElementById){<br />
ziel = document.getElementById( zielId );<br />
zielContainer = document.getElementById( zielContainerId);<br />
if (ziel.style.display == "none"){<br />
ziel.style.display = ""; <br />
zielContainer.style.height = "1in"; <br />
<br />
} else {<br />
ziel.style.display = "none";<br />
ziel.style.height = "0in";<br />
zielContainer.style.height = "0.375in";<br />
}<br />
<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
</script> <br />
<br />
I need to associate the text "Report Description" at the beginning of the code.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi Picaso,

You could localize the string in Javascript as follows:

reportContext.getMessage("ReportDescriptionKey", reportContext.getLocale()).

Where "ReportDescriptionKey" is the static text key in your properties file.

Does that help?
