WoLeRiNe` Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 I have writed on the image.The dates on 2.2 are'nt always normal!You see; Month/Day/YearIt must be; Day/Month/YearNo?Your idea?
Michael Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 It depends on what your definition of normal is. In the US anyway, that date format is normal.
Quillz Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Date and Time Settings in the ACP allows you to change how dates are displayed, toggle 24-hour time, etc.
WoLeRiNe` Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Long time formati have changed but it haven't changed for Profil...It don't change in "Date & Time Formats"
bfarber Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 There isn't a control for this in the ACP. We're looking into it. In many countries, it's day/month/year, while in the US it's month/day/year.
WoLeRiNe` Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 I'm from France but it is always same month/day/year. (in TURKEY also)I can't change as day/month/year?
Mesmer Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 I'm from France but it is always same month/day/year. (in TURKEY also)I can't change as day/month/year?That's correct. You can't change it now but as posted by bfarber they are looking into it.
Mark Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 It seems odd to use mm/dd/yy when the rest of the world use dd/mm/yy - I think dd/mm is the internationally accepted format, though I could be wrong.To play it safe, why not make the default dd-mmm-yyyy for example today would be 31-Oct-2006
RawkBob Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 I avoid using short dates for this very reason, i'd stick to something like above or the full thing, i.e., 1st November, 2006.
Mesmer Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 To play it safe, why not make the default dd-mmm-yyyy for example today would be 31-Oct-2006good suggestion

bfarber Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 The bug report you linked has nothing to do with this actual suggestion actually. :)
Mat Barrie Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 It seems odd to use mm/dd/yy when the rest of the world use dd/mm/yy - I think dd/mm is the internationally accepted format, though I could be wrong.To play it safe, why not make the default dd-mmm-yyyy for example today would be 31-Oct-2006In terms of internationally accepted formats, the closest we have is the ISO date format, of yyyy-mm-dd.
.KX Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Uhh, someone beat me to it, just when I could've made a post that'd make me look some-what 'smart'.Anyway is the order that the 3 (day, month and year) settable in the ACP? If so, then - this really isn't a problem.

.KX Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 I DID read the whole topic, it would seem that I missed the part stating that there isn't a setting in the ACP.
nwoparamedics Posted November 5, 2006 Posted November 5, 2006 In terms of internationally accepted formats, the closest we have is the ISO date format, of yyyy-mm-dd.I was just thinking the same thing... ;) I'm just glad the format isn't the double digit ones that confuse most i.e. yy/mm/dd or dd/mm/yy Those really screw things up when the data is essential (what is 03/04/06 anyway?).
