[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBSEAM-1174) Change s:selectDate to default the date format pattern based on the Seam Locale

Change s:selectDate to default the date format pattern based on the Seam Locale ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-1174 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1174 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: JSF Affects Versions: 1.2.1.GA Reporter: Daniel Young If no pattern is specified, s:selectDate defaults the javascript CAL_DATE_FORMAT to "MM/dd/yyyy". If you use this in conjunction with s:convertDateTime in a locale that uses "dd/MM/yyyy", there calendar behaves very strangely. It should be possible to use s:selectDate and s:convertDateTime together and not have to specify a date pattern. It should default to the correct pattern for that locale. Any application with a locale switcher really needs this behaviour. One open question would be whether to use the FULL, LONG, MEDIUM or SHORT pattern for the locale, perhaps this could be specified as a parameter. The default is generally medium. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
