[jira] [Commented] (VCL-888) Web UI fails to handle translations containing single quotes

["Josh Thompson (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-888?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14701468#comment-14701468 ] 

Josh Thompson commented on VCL-888:
-----------------------------------

Having a function in javascript named i() isn't going to work since functions and variables are more closely related than in php. So, the translation function will need to have another name, which might as well be _(). However, that will require finding all the places in the php code that return javascript calling the translation function. :(

> There are parts of the code where a string is sent in single quotes as javascript in response to an AJAX call. If the string is translated into something that contains single quotes, javascript throws an error. The translated string needs to have single quotes escaped.
