Description bugbridge 2007-02-05 17:17:55 UTC

Original status: 5-Cause Known; Suggested Status: NEW

Original Target Release: mako_dev; Suggested Target Milestone : Dev

These items should be added to the Keywords: I18N

Description:
Steps:
1. install Thresher ml build 051219_1
2. create a web app
3. drag-drop Inline Help to the page
4. in Properties window, open "type" property

Result:
"page" and "field" are in English. They're hardcoded.

Evaluation:
That's because "page" and "field" are literals that are set as such in the JSP.
If you localized them, they will no longer work. 

We could add a display version that is localized.

If so, please reopen the bug. thanks

Please see previous comment.

the words mentioned in issue, since they are reserved, need to stay in english,
as is the practice with other property values, since they need to be visible
as reserved to the user.

am closing the issue.
