Localizing applications
You can write code to format dates, times, and currencies. For example, the following code converts a Date object into
month/day/year format or day/month/year format. if the locale variable (representing the locale) is set to "en_US",
the function returns month/day/year format. The example converts a Date object into day/month/year format for all
other locales:
function convertDate(date)
{
if (locale == "en_US")
{
return (date.getMonth() + 1) + "/" + date.getDate() + "/" + date.getFullYear();
}
else
{
return date.getDate() + "/" + (date.getMonth() + 1) + "/" + date.getFullYear();
}
}
