On second thought, since this is running in JavaScript, we can assume the browser will default to
the user's locale. The trick will be to figure out how to render the calendar correctly in the
user's locale. Some locales have their week start on Monday, some locales have 13 months in a year, etc.

Hi,
As a pre for correct implementation of locale date formats I am looking
forward to make a new javascript calendar. I have been testing dojo 0.9
and it has a nice widget (DateTextbox) for selecting dates, It is nice
and fast ;) and it supports different locale formats. It should be
extended however to:
- Accept time input.
- "Forget" about dojo locales (based upon CLDR, which I like but that's
another story) and allow a date format string as parameter.
These requirement should not be very difficult (I believe as I am a
newbie to dojo and javascript in general). However, being the calendar
one of the most visual parts of ofbiz I would like to see comments about
this approach.
Thanks,
