don't know if this is the right place for posting..
This is a sort of bug report and a solution proposal at the same time.

Actually the jscript calendar shows a date in the american format: y-mm-dd
I was not able to find where to change language files for having other format like for example: dd-mm-y
Now I've find a fix that works for me and may be could be inserted in the next to come 2.5.1 release.

A)in include/calendarjs.php changed lines 86/87 from:
Calendar._TT["DEF_DATE_FORMAT"] = "y-mm-dd";
Calendar._TT["TT_DATE_FORMAT"] = "y-mm-dd";


to
Calendar._TT["DEF_DATE_FORMAT"] = "<?php echo _CAL_DEF_DATE_FORMAT;?>";
Calendar._TT["TT_DATE_FORMAT"] = "<?php echo _CAL_TT_DATE_FORMAT;?>";


B) in language/[my_language_name]/calendar.php
added in the end two lines
define("_CAL_DEF_DATE_FORMAT""dd-mm-y");
define("_CAL_TT_DATE_FORMAT""dd-mm-y");


this will give a clean localization option to all translators also for jscript calendar, provided that no other solution has been developed

let me know your opinion
Ian

Hmm, unless it is overwritten somewhere else to a local date format, then you're right - it shouldn't be "hard-coded" there.

Can you enter it on SourceForge as a bug, with a link to this message, so we can keep track of this suggestion?
