Bob Schellink commented on CLK-650:
-----------------------------------
Thinking a about this today, one of the nice things about using Javascript to
localize messages is the translations are externalized into a JS file which
gets download once and cached by the browser. The proposed change will "inline"
the translations, which becomes part of the page markup. It could have
performance impact in a scenario where a page uses a FormTable with multiple
datefield columns.
PS: a bit off topic but we really should try and find a replacement for the
DateField Javascript library. The JS popup library is now unmaintained and
quite sluggish on IE. It is also tied to the Prototype library which doesn't
play nice with other libraries.

> Project: Click
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: extras
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0
> Reporter: Bob Schellink
> Assignee: Finn Bock
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: datefield.patch, datefield_no_js.patch
>

> From CLK-624:
> Before we all go ahead and submit translations for month and day names (and
> abbreviations), I think it would make more sense for DateField to generate
> these names from here:
> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DateFormatSymbols.html#getMonths%28%29
> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DateFormatSymbols.html#getShortMonths%28%29
> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DateFormatSymbols.html#getWeekdays%28%29
> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DateFormatSymbols.html#getShortWeekdays%28%29
> By creating the arrays from java's names we will AFAIK also instantly
> "support" all language so that DateField.SUPPORTTED_LANGUAGES can be removed.
