formatDate in datepicker not formatting correctly in IE and Avant
Hi All,
I'm using jQuery 1.2.6 and the datepicker widget from jquery-ui-
personalized-1.6rc5.
I have a date that needs to be in Japanese. I have used the i18n files
that came with it, and altered
jquery/ui/i18n/ui.datepicker-ja.js to:
dateFormat: 'yy年mm月dd日',
from
dateFormat: 'yy/mm/dd'.
In Firefox, Safari, etc, this renders properly as "2009年02月27日" which
is 27th of Feb, 2009.
IE and Avant show "02/27/2009", which has neither the Japanese
characters nor the order of the format correct.
I haven't read anything from anyone else complaining about IE not
working with formatDate. Is this a bug? Am I doing something wrong?
Even with the new characters (default settings), the order of the date
fields is incorrect.
Thanks very much..
