Summary: formatDate fails when local is missing
Product: Taglibs
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Keywords: NeedsReleaseNote
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: I18N Taglib
AssignedTo: taglibs-dev@jakarta.apache.org
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Some browsers (IE from GoogleEarth) do not pass local information in the HTTP
header for the request, therefore request.getLocale() returns null. When this
happens the following tag fails even though a pattern and timezone are
specified:
<fmt:formatDate value="${d}" pattern="yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm z" timeZone="GMT"/>
The above just prints out d.toString()
SimpleDateFormat has all the elements it needs for a successful format, it
should format the date as expected instead of using d.toString()
Workaround:
You can add the following to your JSP and it will work.
<c:choose>
<c:when test="${request.locale == null}">
<fmt:setLocale value="en_US" />
</c:when>
</c:choose>
