Internationalization of text boxes

Hi, 
 
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??? 
 
The code inside the text box: 
 
Report description ** 
 
<script type="text/javascript"> 
 
function collapseFunction( zielId,zielContainerId){ 
if (document.getElementById){ 
ziel = document.getElementById( zielId ); 
zielContainer = document.getElementById( zielContainerId); 
if (ziel.style.display == "none"){ 
ziel.style.display = ""; 
zielContainer.style.height = "1in"; 
 
} else { 
ziel.style.display = "none"; 
ziel.style.height = "0in"; 
zielContainer.style.height = "0.375in"; 
} 
 
} 
} 
 
</script> 
 
I need to associate the text "Report Description" at the beginning of the code. 
 
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?
