How is the i18n support for Javascript ?

Like any other script language the i18n support for Javascript is limited. There is no string externalization mechanism (resource bundles or propery files). One need to use the server side technology to overcome this problem. Treat the string inside Javascript as any other text in the HTML page and use server side logic to send the appropriate language text.

Where can I find some workarounds ?
