I am using the webshims library to support older browsers better with more modern features. While the date picker works great with the mouse I seem to be having problems using it from the keyboard. The easiest way to see this is visit the demo page. I am using Firefox since it doesn't have date support.
Without making any modifications try to type in a date. I can enter numbers but I cannot enter a "/". If you enable the placeholder it even suggests the slash. I tried leaving out the separator or using "-" (which it lets me type) but when the form submits I get no value.
How are you supposed to enter a date via the keyboard?
For bonus points is it possible to allow the date picker to not enforce a format? I have backend code that can parse a wide variety of date formats. So they can use the date picker if they wish but if they type something in then whatever they type in is sent onto the server without modification.
Try this.This works for '/' format..
$.webshims.formcfg = {
en: {
dFormat: '/',
dateSigns: '/',
patterns: {
d: "mm/dd/yy"
}
}
};
webshims.activeLang('en');
It appears that there is an issue with the locale settings. From what I can tell, there is a form config attribute called dateSigns that gets set in the locale settings.
The solution for me was to go to file shims/combos/5.js and look for a chunk of code having dateSigns in it. I found the relevant one for US English around line 1750, which looks like this:
if(!formcfg['en-US']){
formcfg['en-US'] = $.extend(true, {}, formcfg.en, {
date: {firstDay: 0},
patterns: {d: "mm/dd/yy"},
dateSigns: '-',
dFormat: "/",
meridian: ['AM', 'PM']
});
}
I updated the dateSigns line to
dateSigns: '/',
It is a horrible hack, and there must be a way to set this as a configuration, or at least get the real locale settings to handle this. But I didn't manage to in the limited time I have available. But maybe this will help you. It works for me.

I'm trying to use trans_choice() to simply format a string to either "comment" or "comments" depending on the number of them. It should be fairly straightforward, like this.
In my view:
{{ trans_choice('posts.num comments', $post->comments->count()) }}
In the posts localisation file:
return [
'num comments' => 'comment|comments',
];
However, every single one returns just "comment". And if I go into tinker:
>>> trans_choice('posts.num comments', 1);
=> "comment"
>>> trans_choice('posts.num comments', 2);
=> "comment"
>>> trans_choice('posts.num comments', 4);
=> "comment"
I'm sure I'm missing something obvious but it looks to me as if I've followed the documentation perfectly.
Edit: The problem seems to lie somewhere in Symfony\Component\Translation\MessageSelector, but I haven't yet figured the cause out.
Finally found the answer. Apparently, if the locale isn't available in Symfony's PluralizationRules class, the translator defaults to the first pick - that is, always index zero. By changing the locale name (I didn't even realise it was misspelled...), I got it working.
I know this post is old, but I ran into this issue, so hoping my solution helps someone if Joel's solution doesn't work.
I'm working with Laravel 7.x, and am using localization on a project for differences between US an CA English, (i.e. Center vs. Centre).
I have my localization folders set up with en being the default folder and en_ca as the Canadian English folder, where en is also the fallback language.
When using trans_choice() I found I had to specifically set the the counts in my translation strings, otherwise the translation engine would just spit back the singular when viewing pages in the non-default locale.
Once the changes were made, trans_choice() worked, no matter what locale was set.
For example, wherever I had:
'general.posts' => 'Posts|Posts',
I changed it to:
'general.posts' => '{1} Post|[2,*] Posts',
After that everything worked.
If you're brazilian that's probably your answer!
I just had the same problem and found out it was because of my locale option (and lang folder).
Instead of 'br' we must use 'xbr' in order to Symphony find it in PluralizationRules (vendor/symphony/translation/PluralizationRules).
In that file there's an array with all languages available, so may check it out.
P.S. I'm using Laravel 5.3
I need to change Magento's default decimal format. I mean, when I save '1' to a decimal field, it becomes '10000.0000' with this '.0000' in the end.
I need to change it to another format, which uses ',' instead of '.' to separate decimal (and currency) numbers.
This is the Brazilian standard and it's not being used even after changing the store language. This change should be reflected mainly in the admin side.
Thanks a lot!
==Edited==
I haven't solved the problem yet. I'm using PT-BR (Brazilian Portuguese) as default language and it still using the wrong decimal character.
It seems Magento have some not-localized price formatting (I mean, hard-coded) in a few points of code. For example: magento\js\prototype\validation.js at line 426 have:
|| (!isNaN(parseNumber(v)) && /^\s*-?\d*(\,\d*)?\s*$/.test(v));
but instead it needs to be
|| (!isNaN(parseNumber(v)) && /^\s*-?\d*(\,\d*)?\s*$/.test(v));
to fit into PT-BR format (or other locales to).
Am I right? Does anybody could fix this issue?
if you want to check in admin area for this change
you go to in admin left bottom drop down
and select
Português (Portugal) / português (Portugal)
it will show you currency as you want. Also if you doesn't install you package go to
http://www.magentocommerce.com/translations/list/19
download your package and add it to your
locale folder and select from configuration for front end also
hope this will sure help you.
I've applied the following change to the file magento\js\prototype\validation.js (line 426):
|| (!isNaN(parseNumber(v)) && /^\s*-?\d*(\,\d*)?\s*$/.test(v));
and also, changed the file lib/Varien/Data/Form/Element/Abstract.php by adding the first if statement:
public function getEscapedValue($index=null)
{
$value = $this->getValue($index);
if(is_numeric($value)){
$value= number_format($value, 3, ",", ".");
}
...
this changes have solved the problem so far. Do you see any side-effect?
Comments are welcome! Thanks!
Newer versions of Magento are based on Zend Framework currency locale format so the best way to do this is to change the language.xml from the Zend directory, more information is on this great article.
I originally wrote 800 lines to do this, site by site. However, on talking to a couple of people, it seems like my code is way longer than it needs to be.
So, I've got an idea of what you'd do in Python, with a particular Egg, but I'm working with Ruby. So, does anyone have any idea how to enter details in a form field, based on what the label for it is, rather than the id/name? Using Mechanize.
Let's say your html looks like:
<label>Foo</label>
<input name="foo_field">
You can get the name of the input following a specific label:
name = page.at('label[text()="Foo"] ~ *[name]')[:name]
#=> "foo_field"
and use that to set the form value
form[name] = 'bar'
How do i format something for another locale in Windows?
For example, in managed C# code, i would try to render a DateTime using en-US locale with:
String s = DateTime.Now.ToString(CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-US"));
TextRenderer.DrawText(
e.Graphics, s, SystemFonts.IconTitleFont,
new Point(16, 16), SystemColors.ControlText);
And that works fine when my computer's locale is en-US:
It even works fine when my computer's locale is de-DE:
But it completely falls apart when my computer's locale is ps-AF:
Note: My sample code is in .NET, but can also be native.
Update: Attempting to set System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture to en-US before calling DrawText:
var oldCulture = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture;
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-US");
try
{
// String s = DateTime.Now.ToString(CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-US"));
String s = DateTime.Now.ToString();
TextRenderer.DrawText(e.Graphics, s, SystemFonts.IconTitleFont, new Point(16, 16), SystemColors.ControlText);
}
finally
{
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = oldCulture;
}
No help.
Nine, no help
Jack, no help
Eight, possible straight
King, possible flush
Ace, no help
Six, possible straight

Update Two:
From Michael Kaplan's blog entry:
Sometimes, GDI respects users (even if no one else does!)
GDI doesn't give a crap about formatting or really anything related to locales, with one single exception:
Digit Substitution
Any time you go to render text it will grab those digit substitution settings in the user locale (including the user override information) and use the info to decide how to display numbers.
And there is no way to override those settings at the level where GDI uses them.
i wonder how Chrome manages it. When i write digits here, in the stackoverflow question, Chrome renders them using latin digits:
0123456789
See:
What you are seeing is due to the digit substitution that occurs when your system's locale is ps-AF.
I believe that's OK -- Users of such a locale are used to seeing digits presented this way.
Normally the way this is done is slightly different, see here for example, but I don't actually think this should make any difference:
String s = DateTime.Now.ToString(new CultureInfo("en-US"));
An alternative is to set Thread.CurrentCulture to your desired locale.
I.e. do this:
Thread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("en-US");
And you can then replace the first line of your code with this:
String s = DateTime.Now.ToString();
I am not quite sure, but I believe that this would solve the digit substitution issue as DrawText would now be based on the en-US culture, rather than ps-AF
This may be very simple question but I am very new to ruby or any programming language. I want to trim some text and use it as parameter for next step. Can any one please write me code for doing this. I am testing a web application which is used in financial domain. I need to use the cvv2 and expiry date of card number which is generated in next step as parameter. The text which gets displayed on html is
CVV2 - 657 Expiry - 05/12 (mm/yy)
Now from the above text I should some how get only '657' and '0512' as value to use is in next step.
Request for urgent assistance.
If all your strings will be formatted like this, I suggest using regexp, using String#gsub. There's lots of places to learn about regexp if you don't already, and rubular allows you to test it in your browser, with a short cheat sheet.
To do it quickly you could use
card_details = "CVV2 - 657 Expiry - 05/12 (mm/yy)"
card_details = card_details.scan(/\d{2,}/)
cvv2 = card_details[0]
expiry = card_details[1] + card_details[2]
Probably better ways of doing it as I'm no expert, but you said urgent, so.
For getting the text out of the cell you could try (I don't use the original watir anymore, so I might not be able to remember this):
card_details = browser.td(:text => /CVV2/).text
If that doesn't work give this a try (actually on second thought TRY THIS ONE FIRST)
card_details = browser.cell(:text => /CVV2/).text
For these examples I'm assuming your browser object is called "browser".
We can use regular expression to achieve the same,
> "CVV2 - 657 Expiry - 05/12 (mm/yy)".match(/\d{3}/)
=> "657"
>"CVV2 - 657 Expiry - 05/12 (mm/yy)".match(/\d+\/\d+/)
=> "05/12"
