: Date in header for non-english : albigin October 04, 2007, 12:30:14 AM Hi,
I have userchoice happily running on a Joomla! 1.5. But there's an issue: I'm using a non-english language and I can't have the date on the left hand size of the header in my language: it only comes out in english i.e. "October 4, 2007". So I looked for a workaround and found following: in index.php of the template around line 1000 I changed to: <div style="float:left; margin-right: 10px;"> <?php $today = date("j m Y"); PRINT "$today";?> </div> Pb. is that if I set m to M the month's name comes out in english! I want it in italian (this is the default language of my site). Any suggestion? Thx : Re: Date in header for non-english : mikek October 04, 2007, 07:23:49 AM This should work for you.
Just delete: <?php $today = date("j m Y"); PRINT "$today";?> and replace it with: <?php setlocale(LC_TIME, "it_IT"); echo strftime(" %B"); $today = date(" j, Y"); PRINT "$today"; ?> The setlocale(LC_TIME, "it_IT"); tells it Italy as the locale and %B is the format of the month. If you want to play around with any of the formats here's a list of php date options: http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.strftime.php Hope that helps! Regards, |
