How to read Properties file using Jquery and JavaScript

Question

I have tried using jQuery.i18n.properties({}); plugin from this reference site but it's not working.

Is there any another way to read properties file in JavaScript or jQuery so that the contents can be loaded on an HTML page?

Is the access attempt cross-domain? Is it for a http:/https: resource or for a file:// resource? Do you see any errors in your JavaScript console? Please post a sample of your code. — apsillers

Just so we're clear: have you looked in your network console and verified that the Ajax request produced by the plugin is a request for a resource on the exact correct path? That is, if you copy the URL directly out of your browser's network console (for example, in chrome, find your network console with F12 and go to the "Network" tab) and paste it into your address bar, it works? — apsillers

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) localhost/test/bundle/Messages.properties?_=1377629072062 It show this ERROR but the path to the file is correct one And when i copy and paste the url under the network tab i get "HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found" — Shoaib Doulatabad

I think including MIME type to IIS will work

Add

'.properties' MIME extension and add type 'text/plain'.

Specifically (see previous answer) you can do that in two ways:

1) web.config (recommended) - add the following 2 elements :

<configuration>
...
   <system.webServer>
   ...
      <staticContent>
      ...
         <remove fileExtension="properties" />
         <mimeMap fileExtension="properties" mimeType="text/plain" />

2) IIS - you need to do that every time you deploy to a new IIS

open IIS manager
select either the machine node or the web site node (usually Default Web Site)
In the Features View - locate the "Mime Types" icon under the IIS section.
add the mime type:
- File name extension: ".properties" (make sure you have the dot at the beginning)
- Mime type: "text/plain"
