and can you? all my i18n (internationalization) experience is w/cf & that's (IP & http_accept_language) how we always do it (besides simply asking the user, who very often don't know). http://www.sustainablegis.com/projects/geoLocator/ >>> The Date class has string methods that can return localised strings, but >>> the code isn't available :-( >> as far as i know, there's hardly any locale resource data in flex. i was >> told to figure out the locale masks & stuff those in rb. to me, that's a >> much a worse hack. > > 'rb.' ? sorry, resource bundle. no locale resources in flex means you gotta research this yourself & stuff your rb full of that info. that's a huge hack & nasty amount for work for anything but a trivial set of locales. my experience is that folks often end up making "custom" locale data, especially for locales they only have a passing knowledge of. i think it's better to rely on cf (core java) or icu4j for that kind of info. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/Flex/message.cfm/messageid:3253 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/Flex/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.37
