I have a class that encapsulates access to an SQLite DB with three tables. This class takes care of storing all dates in ISO format ("yyyy-MM-dd"). When the date values are ...
Hello! I'm about to start translating my vb.net application, and I don't want to use the default methods provided by Visual Studio to do so.

In Ruby on Rails you can easily convert "any" text into a format which would work for subdomains/pathnames. 1) "I am nobody." -> "i-am-nobody" 2) "Grünkohl is a german word." -> "grunkohl-is-a-german-word" I'd like to do this on the client-side for high responsiveness (alternative would be via Ajax). The last example is called transl...

So that's the problem. In my application globalize2 returns a NIL string if there's no translation on some record, instead of falling back to default_locale. I wonder how to enable thin functionality? Does anyone figured that out? ...
A user of my program has reported problems reading a settings file written by my program. I looked at the settings file in question and instead of decimal points using the period "." it uses commas ",". I'm assuming this is to do with locales?

I'm using jQuery in my current Rails project and I'd like to have some way to use the translations from my yml files in Javascript. I know that I can easily use them in my .js.erb templates.

The reason I'm asking is because (among other things) I find the way gettext does things slightly cumbers...
