date renderer issue in extjs

Question

i,

I have a date renderer issue for a column. when browser language is in english the date is displayed in this format

09/14/2009 09:23 AM

But when i change the browser language to german(displays coreect in english and french) the date is not rendered it displays NAN/NAN/NAN 12:NAN PM

Here is the code..

var dateRenderer = Ext.util.Format.dateRenderer('m/d/Y h:i A');

var colModel = new Ext.grid.ColumnModel([
{ 
     header: xppo.st('SDE_DATE_OCCURRED'), 
     width: 75, 
     sortable: true, 
     dataIndex: 'DateOccurred', 
     renderer: dateRenderer 
}]);

How can i render the date in other languages.Please help me with this issue.

Thanks

Answer 1

Are you certain that the input date is being parsed correctly for German? The dateRenderer output should be the same -- if it works at all, the language should not matter. Since you are getting NaN it's more likely that something in the input data for German is invalid.

Hello from Germany :D Why dont you use an Ext.grid.DateColumn ? its very simple... simply pass

format: "d.m.Y H:i:s"

to its constructor and everything should be fine :)
