JQuery datepicker language problem

Question

Hello

I'm using the jquery datepicker from jqueryui.com and I have a problem changing the calendar to swedish, I have this code:

    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(function() {
        $.datepicker.setDefaults($.datepicker.regional['sv']);
        $("#StartDate").datepicker();
        $('#StartDate').datepicker('option', 'dateFormat', 'yy-mm-dd');
    }); 
</script>

still it shows as an english calendar.

What might be missing?

Answer 1

Maybe you don't have a language file:

A new localization should be created in a separate JavaScript file named ui.datepicker-.js. Within a document.ready event it should add a new entry into the $.datepicker.regional array, indexed by the language code, with the following attributes:

Edit: Also i believe language file should be called sw, not sv

This looks useful:

http://dev.jqueryui.com/browser/tags/1.8a1/ui/i18n/jquery-ui-i18n.js?rev=3060

I downloaded the script jquery-ui-i18n.js and it made the trick ^_^ That archive is not included in the custom download.

Hope it helps.
