Thanks for your help Malcolm. I will give it a try.

Not directly, no. The date filter is locale-aware and designed for
created human readable strings.
You would need to write your own filter that does the same thing but
after first calling django.utils.translation.deactivate() (or maybe call
activate('en') so that the result isn't dependent on your settings
file). Remember to retrieve the current locale with get_language() first
and set it back afterwards or you may get some weird side-effects.

Unexpected date translation
Hi,
i'm using a date based generic on a multi-language website. When the online
language is set to German, {{ date|date:"M"|lower }} returns a localized
value - "mär" instead of "mar" that is. This breaks the link i intend to
build. Can the localisation be turned of somehow in this case?
