Support of german locale

[Sebi]

Hi,

I am new at "ofbiz" and evaluating the framework.

I wonder if it is possible for users to type in a german date-format. It still looks like this:



I surely changed the preferences to locale "de_DE" - I also started the ofBiz-server under a german locale.

The (label-)output of date/times is often not formattet:



what can be done by

    ${partyContactMech.fromDate?date?string.short}

insted of

    ${partyContactMech.fromDate}

But I found no way to manage dates in inputfields in a similar way.

Thank you for your help, I hope my english is ok so far...

Hi Sebi,
I'm formatting my dates with code like this
description="${bsh:openDate.tostring().substring(5,7)}"
               
Maybe you will find it helpful.  Good luck

Hi Sebi,

I think following will help you for change date formate.

<#assign date =
Static["java.text.DateFormat"].getDateInstance(Static["java.text.DateFormat"].LONG,
locale).format((date)!) />
