Just a question about some information on setlocale i found on php.net http://php.net/manual/en/function.setlocale.php
It says:
Note:
On Windows, setlocale(LC_ALL, '') sets the locale names from the system's regional/language settings (accessible via Control Panel).
Does that mean if i add setlocale(LC_ALL, '') to my php, it should be the same local as my system? Because i have done that and it's still English with months.
When i echo out setlocale(LC_ALL, 0) i get this:
LC_COLLATE=C;LC_CTYPE=Norwegian (Bokm�l)_Norway.1252;LC_MONETARY=C;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=C
and when i echo out setlocale(LC_ALL, '') i get this:
Norwegian (Bokm�l)_Norway.1252
So i don't really know what to do from the echo it looks like its set to Norwegian and when i use setlocale(LC_ALL, '') i should also set everything to Norwegian including time, but it does not.
Here is also the code i use to change the time format.
date('d.F', strtotime($row['date2']))
SOLUTION: Use strftime() instead of strtotime().
strtotime does not take into account the set locale.
Before:
date('d.F', strtotime($row['date2']))
Output: 17.February
After:
setlocale(LC_ALL, '');
strftime('%e.%B',strtotime($row['date2']))
Output: 17.februar
