Hi, Despite the high likelihood that I'll be chewed out as an ignoramus who can't seem to read docs (I have... for about a day), I'm going to try to ask a seemingly basic question (without even posting my model;)
I'm using the Django 1.2 enhanced localization feature to setup formatting constants. This works fine and my tree looks like this- myapp->formats->en->formats.py In this file, I have a constant DATETIME_FORMAT = "n/j/Y" I have a Japanese file myapp->formats->en->formats.py In this file, I have a constant DATETIME_FORMAT = "Y/n/j" This all works great for my templating puposes! Problem is that I need to know this mask in a view. Trying to use settings.DATETIME_FORMAT producing something completely wrong... "N j, Y, P"... so that's not the answer. How can I do something like strptime(request.POST["start-date"], mycurrent_DATETIME_FORMAT)... There's got to be an undocumented way of referencing the constant currently being used? Any help would be appreciated. -jim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
