Notes

This snippet when added to a XPage allows you to switch the browser locale of the page. When an option is selected from the drop down an onChange action gets fired changing the language of the web page. This snippet also includes a reset button to return to default page locale setting.

<xp:label id="label2" ><xp:this.value><![CDATA[#{javascript:var lc = context.getLocale().getDisplayName();
"Current locale: "+lc}]]></xp:this.value></xp:label><xp:br/>
	
	
		<xp:comboBox id="comboBoxChangeLocale"
			value="#{sessionScope.lc2}" >
			<xp:selectItem itemLabel="default" itemValue="">
			</xp:selectItem>
			<xp:selectItems>
				<xp:this.value><![CDATA[${javascript:context.getLocale().getAvailableLocales().sort()}]]></xp:this.value>
			</xp:selectItems>
			<xp:eventHandler event="onchange" submit="true"
				refreshMode="complete">
				<xp:this.action><![CDATA[#{javascript:var lc2 = sessionScope.lc2;
var lng = @If(@Contains(lc2,"_"),@Left(lc2,"_"),"");
var cty = @If(@Contains(lc2,"_"),@Right(lc2,"_"),"");
@If(
@Contains(lc2,"_"), 
context.setLocale(new Locale(lng, cty)) , 
context.setLocaleString(lc2))
context.reloadPage()}]]></xp:this.action>
			</xp:eventHandler>
		</xp:comboBox>
		<xp:button value="Reset" id="button3">
			<xp:eventHandler event="onclick" submit="true"
				refreshMode="complete">
				<xp:this.action><![CDATA[#{javascript:context.setLocale(null);
sessionScope.remove("lc2");
context.reloadPage()}]]></xp:this.action>
			</xp:eventHandler>
		</xp:button>
