Question

I need to set extraLocale on djConfig on a Domino 8.5.3FP1 server.

(Package Explorer)

This is normally done like so:

xsp.client.script.dojo.djConfig=extraLocale: ['sv-se']

But Domino will escape my string into this:

extraLocale: [\'sv-se\']

Doesn’t matter if I do:

xsp.client.script.dojo.djConfig=extraLocale: ["sv-se"]

Same result.

Any ideas appreciated!

Here comes an evil hack for this problem (tested in IE 8 & 9 & FF 15,16,17):

1. Change your extraLocale to a javascript variable

2. Add a javascript block before everyhing else in the beforePageLoad event

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
   <xp:view xmlns:xp="http://www.ibm.com/xsp/core">
       <xp:this.properties>
           <xp:parameter name="xsp.client.script.dojo.djConfig" value="extraLocale: exLocale" />
       </xp:this.properties>
   
       <xp:this.beforePageLoad>
       <![CDATA[#{javascript:
           var exCon = facesContext.getExternalContext();
           var response = exCon.getResponse();
           var writer = response.getWriter();
           writer.write("<script>\n");
           writer.write("var exLocale=['sv-se','de-de']\n");
           writer.write("</script>\n");
           }]]>
       </xp:this.beforePageLoad>
   
   
       <xp:scriptBlock id="scriptBlock1"
           value="dojo.addOnLoad( function(){ alert( dojo.config.extraLocale ) } );">
       </xp:scriptBlock>
   </xp:view>
   

In this example I added the paramter directly to the XPage and add two extra locales.
Hope this helps and/or inspires for a cleaner solution 🙂

P.S.
The problem is that the additional djConfig parameters will be parsed internally and the slashes are escaped automatically.
