UK dates in zimlets revisited

[Mike Scholes]

I haven't worked in Zimbra for a while but I'm back with a new installation - 5.0.10. Some time ago I posted a fix for displaying the correct UK date in the mouse over event in an email message body to display UK dates. I modified the date.js file and swapped a couple of parameters. Now the problem is back with 4/11/2008 showing appointments for 11th April 2008. Trouble is date.js is totally different and I can't figure out what's happening. I've set the language to English UK. Anyone know the new file to modify to fix this issue?

You have to modify the date_zimlet (or create a new one).

For us French, Carlos created a new zimlet (date_zimlet_fr) with the correct regular expression in it.

You can download from the forum (here) the french patch (that contains the french date zimlet, a patch for aspell and a couple other things).

You'll then be able to compare the french date zimlet with the original one to find out what/where to change the regexp for your needs.

Thanks for that I'll have a look

I had a look but can't relate one file against the other. Rather than go to the effort of deploying/creating new zimlets isn't there a fix for the problem, after all UK dates should work.
