Hello, Dates get displayed in english on our site even if your Browser is set to german locale. Here are some examples:
http://esx-108.gbv.de/handle/2339.2/197 http://esx-108.gbv.de/handle/2339.3/268 http://esx-108.gbv.de/handle/2339.3/315 http://esx-108.gbv.de/handle/2339.3/371 http://esx-108.gbv.de/handle/2339.3/384 http://esx-108.gbv.de/handle/2339.3/391 If you have Quick Locale Switcher installed in Firefox, you can see the problem if you switch to german locale. Actually, this has nothing to do with the browser, but it does not become obvious as long as everything gets displayed consistently in english. The formatting happens server-side. The values are stored in the dcvalue table and the dc_type_id for the value date.created shown here is 14. The format stored in the table is like: 1936-05-01 1968-03-26 1970-05-26 1973-05-22 1985-03-27 1987-10 I havent searched within the code to find the place where the dates get transformed from the format stored to the format displayed. It is probably within the content/Item.java. We are stil running DSpace 1.3.2. Is this fixed meanwhile? The difference is visible only with the month March, May, October and December which show a different writing in German within the first three letters: März, Mai, Oktober, Dezember. I guess it might have to do with the fact that the field text_lang within the table dcvalue is empty for all dates. It is set to de properly with Dublin Core type description but not with values of some other types. Is there a simple way to fix this?
