Want to read the key value from File properties

Question

I have a properties file, now using javascript code I want to read the key value from the properties file.

Answer 1

If we are talking about reading a local javascript file from a web browser, you cannot do this due to security restrictions. Javascript, on the other hand, can read a remote file from a website using various methods (e.g. AJAX).

Answer 2

Take a look at this jquery plugin: http://code.google.com/p/jquery-i18n-properties/

Answer 3

You can use jQuery. Your properties file may be in JSON format. Then you can use this:

jQuery.getJSON( your_properties_file_url );
