JavaScript and XPages reference
This reference describes the JavaScript™ language elements, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), and other artifacts that you need to create scripts, plus the XPages simple actions.
Runtime (JavaScript)
The Runtime library contains classes that provide useful methods for globalization.
Locale (Runtime - JavaScript)
A Locale object represents a specific geographical, political, or cultural region. An operation that requires a Locale to perform its task is called locale-sensitive and uses the Locale to tailor information for the user. For example, displaying a number is a locale-sensitive operation because the number should be formatted according to the conventions of the user's native country, region, or culture.
getDisplayVariant (JavaScript)
Returns a name for the locale's variant code that is appropriate for display to the user. If possible, the name can be localized for Locale. If the locale doesn't specify a variant code, this function returns the empty string.
