Title Body

I'm attempting to internationalize some of our code. I have a page in JSPX which is using the <spring:message> tag to resolve strings from a message.properties file. This works fine for the HTML and CSS that is in the JSPX page, however there a javascript file is sourced, and substituting the <spring:message> tag for the string in there just means that it gets printed out verbatim. My JSPX sources the javascript like so: <spring:theme code="jsFile" var="js" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="${js}" /> The JS where I'm looking the replace the string is below: buildList('settings', [{ name: '<spring:message code="proj.settings.toggle" javaScriptEscape="true" />', id:"setting1", description: '<spring:message code="proj.settings.toggle.description" javaScriptEscape="true" />', installed: true }]); And finally the message.properties is something like: proj.settings.toggle=Click here to toggle proj.settings.toggle.description=This toggles between on and off So what I'm wondering is, should this work? It seems to me like it should, from what I've gathered on various forums, but I can't figure out where I'm going wrong. Is there a better way to go about this? I should also note that these files are outside the WEB-INF folder, but by placing the ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource in the root applicationContext.xml the spring tags are picked up. Thanks for any help!
