UK date format

[Dirk]

I know this is an old thread and the bugs seem to have been fixed, but when I make an appointment in the calendar, the date format is mm/dd/yyyy which, for a UK setup, is wrong.

Going on the idea that the application works and I'm doing something wrong, where should I check the regional settings for zimbra, as I've not seen this setting anywhere. The client computer and the server are set correctly, so I'm a bit perplexed.

Are you sure you have got your system set for UK date/time formats? The correct date shows as 07/08/2006 for August for me.

Thanks Bill, I checked in IE shortly after posting and the date format is correct, so it's clearly a browser issue.

I'll play with firefox a bit more and see if I can find what's going on. Every regional setting that I can find is set to UK so the must be something odd happening in FF.

I should have checked in more detail before posting

There's no specific date settings in FF (AFAIK) but make sure you have the correct Language set as English-UK. Has this only just happened? I can't imagine why it's doing that unless there's a setting wrong somewhere, I still have a WIN2K3 server that works fine with IE & FF and it also works on Linux & FF. I assume you're running the current 3.1.2 of Zimbra?

Hi, yes zimbra 3.1.2. Dates are formatted right in IE and wrong in FF. This is not too much of a stumbling block, more of an 'oddness' and it's probably only my it affects. Should I discover something more (like a fix) I'll be sure to post it here.

Oh, and as for when it happened, I dont know. I've only just noticed it, but it may have been like this for a while.
