[SOLVED] I've got the date zimlet to work with British format

[Mike Scholes]

For those fellow Brits out there I have a quick fix so that dates in email in the format dd/mm/yyyy and variants display the correct date in the popup

file name: /opt/zimbra/jetty-6.1.5/webapps/service/zimlet/com_zimbra_date/date.js

In function ZmDate7ObjectHandler

Change

var month = parseInt(result[1], 10) - 1;
var dom = parseInt(result[2], 10);

To

var month = parseInt(result[2], 10) - 1;
var dom = parseInt(result[1], 10);

I just swapped the [1] and [2] around

You might also want to change ZmDate5ObjectHandler if you want to catch 25-1-2008 (dash format)

Restart zimbra for it to work

I think things have all changed now since the version I was working with including the config files. The newer versions of Zimbra (I'm on 6) don't seem to have British date problems.
