For one of my customers I am developing an easy way for editing the localization\/translation of existing XPages applications: Instead of importing and exporting the property files with the Domino Designer (which is not an option for non-developers) it would be more suitable, if the users would have the possibility to edit the files directly in the browser. I am currently\u00a0 working on a XPage solution for this, and this is my current beta version.<\/p>\n

This is a proof-of-concept with some known bugs, f.e. HTML special chars are not encoded correctly. But this can be fixied easily. First, it is required that the users can choose a property file to edit. This can be realized with a small Java class I have created (based on a stackoverflow.com answer<\/a>):<\/p>\n

The difference to the answer on stackoverflow.com is the additional property flag I have added to this class (I know it would be better to check the flags instead of comparing the strings, but it seems to work this way).<\/p>\n
Next step is to load the selected property file. This can be done with a managed bean and a helper class for the entries itself. Here is the helper class:<\/p>\n
