Thanks a lot Carlin!
Not sure what kind of results this would produce without trying out myself but
assuming it will translate the month based on visitors locals (stored in the
session).
What if one wants to localize the date pattern itself as well? Like we know in
many occasions date format varies between countries. How could that be resolved
using the dateFormat tag ?
For example:
31.12.2006 or 31. Tammikuuta 2006 (Finland)
12/31/2006 or January 31st 2006 (U.S)
Thanks again
Mika

Aihe: Re: dateFormat localization question
Hi Mika,
One possible solution would be to create a getter method,
getLanguage(), on the page flow that returns the language value from
the user's locale in the session. The PageFlowController class that a
user extends has a protected method, getLocale(), that returns the
"currently selected Locale, stored in the session." Then the language
value of the Locale object could be returned from the page flow
method, getLocale().
In the JSP, the expression ${pageFlow.language} would get the
language value at runtime from the page flow. From the example you
provided, the formatDate tag might look like this...
<netui:formatDate pattern="MMMM dd, yyyy"
language="${pageFlow.language}"/>
Others on the list might have some additional thoughts as well. Hope
that helps.
Kind regards,
Carlin
