I assume you mean JS like this that generates the UI for the download box:
if ( LINK.toLowerCase().indexOf( "sourceforge" ) != -1 ) {
// Download directly from a mirror with displayed platform and language.
document.write( "<div class=\"first button green\"
id=\"optionitem1\" onclick=\"openItem('optionitem1','"
+ LINK + "');" + "return false;\">" );
document.write( "<h2><a href='" + LINK + "' title='Version " +
VERSION + " - Milestone " + MILESTONE
+ " - Build ID " + BUILD + " - SVN " + SVN_REV + "'>Download
Apache OpenOffice " + VERSION + "</a></h2>"
+ "<p><a href='" + LINK + "' title='Version " + VERSION + " -
Milestone " + MILESTONE + " - Build ID " + BUILD
+ " - SVN " + SVN_REV + "'>Click here for the most recent
version for:<br />"
+ "<b>" + UI_PLATFORM + "</b> and <b>" + LANG_ARRAY[ 2 ] + "</b>
(~" + FILESIZE + " MByte)</a></p>" );
That is a mix of HTML structure, code and language strings. I wonder
if we could define a per-locale strings with place holders like we do
with Pootle:
"Download Apache OpenOffice %s"
"Click here for the most recent version for:"
"%s and %s (%s Megabytes)"
If we get that kind of separation, then doing the substitutions could
be done server side or client side.
