messages inside javascript functions are not getting translated

[josdaniel]

The label inside onclick method is not getting translated from the resource bundle. how should I fix this?

                <s:link view="/Assignment"
                    onclick="if (confirm('#{messages['label.assignment.open']}')) {
                        var f = $('assignment');
                        f.method = 'POST';
                        f.action = f.submit();
                        } return false;">
                    <span>
                        <h:outputText value="#{messages['label.assignment.name']}"/>
                    </span>
                </s:link>

You could try assigning the message strings to JavaScript variables instead, and then reference them when you call confirm(). 

E.g:

var msg_label_assignment_open = "#{messages['label.assignment.open']";

<s:link view="/Assignment"
                    onclick="if (confirm(msg_label_assignment_open)) {
                        var f = $('assignment');
                        f.method = 'POST';
                        f.action = f.submit();
                        } return false;">
                    <span>
                        <h:outputText value="#{messages['label.assignment.name']}"/>
                    </span>
                </s:link>

When JSF renders the page it should replace the EL expression with the actual message string.  Note that I haven't tested this, so you might have to tweak the code a little bit.
