Subject: french date format
Posted By: djenandji Post Date: 1/23/2006 11:49:24 AM
Hi,

I am using the latest version of Saxon and I am trying to print a date in a french format using XSLT2 function format-date(). Setting the language argument of the function to 'fr' doesn't work. I read Saxon's doc and found the following:
The default language is English. Other languages are supported only if user-written localization plug-ins are provided. A sample plug-in for German is available, more as a demonstration of the capability than as a production-quality implementation.

How can I know wich localization plug-ins are installed in my version?
Where can I find other localization plug-ins for Saxon?
Where can I get more info on localization plug-ins?

Thanks!

There isn't currently a localization plug-in for French, but if you would like to write one (you could start with the sample one issued for German), then I'll be happy to consider including it in the product.

You could use the saxon-help list at sourceforge to ask if any other users are interested in working with you on this. That's a better place for Saxon-specific questions than this list.
