English Date Settings

[OllieA]

Hi

This is a very simple problem that hopefully someone can assist me with. I know it may seem trivial to some but I've been testing and checking my work for hours and just can't get it to work.

 

I want to change the dates to the English version e.g. dd/mm/yyyy. I have looked at the basic instructions and made the required amendments to the two files as suggested. But i still get an error when trying to input a DOB with dd/mm/yyyy. When i input mm/dd/yyyy it works ----Is there something else I should be doing extra to the two files in the basic instructions? As someone suggested i even tried the part of the spanish code which have the dates the same way and the UK.

 

Also I think there is a UK version of osCommerce, well I saw it in a previous thread but can't find my way back to it, if anyone can help me (and I have tried searching for it again) by providing a link to it I'd be grateful!

 

thanks Ollie

Thanks for that - its appreciated, any thoughts on why the date format is not working?

Probably because the dob format is not dependant on that in english.php

 

account_edit.php

 

if (ACCOUNT_DOB == 'true') {

if (!checkdate(substr(tep_date_raw($dob), 4, 2), substr(tep_date_raw($dob), 6, 2), substr(tep_date_raw($dob), 0, 4))) {

$error = true;
