How do I get locale day and month?

问题

I'm using the following function to retrieve date and time:

  function formatEventTime($time, $type, $locale = 'nb_NO') {
    setlocale(LC_TIME, $locale);

    switch($type) {
      case 'date' :             $format = '%d.%m'; break;
      case 'dm'   :             $format = '%d. %B'; break;
      case 'time' :             $format = '%H:%M'; break;
      case 'dmy'  :         $format = '%d.%m.%Y'; break;
    }
    return strftime($format, strtotime($time));
  }

wher $time = 2010-12-03 10:00:00. The problem is that my days and months are still in English. How do I change this to e.g. Norwegian?

Update
This works on my server, but not on my locale machine.

回答1:

You have to use strftime() instead of date().

Returns a string formatted according format using the given timestamp or the current local time if no timestamp is given. Month and weekday names and other language-dependent strings respect the current locale set with setlocale().

回答2:

Use IntlDateFormatter::format.

Example:

<?php
$df = new IntlDateFormatter('nb_NO',
    IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
    'Europe/Oslo');
echo $df->format(time());

gives:

torsdag 16. september 2010 kl. 21.23.03 Norge

I know this topic is old but i had the same problem today. The dates are displayed correctly on my linux machine, but on my windows machine they are still in english.

If you want this to work on linux and windows machines you have to be careful with the setlocale() function. On linux you have to use 'nb_NO' (for example) for norwegian formats and on windows you have to use 'norwegian':

if (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3)) === 'WIN') {
    setlocale(LC_ALL, 'norwegian');
} else {
    setlocale(LC_ALL, 'nb_NO');
}

You can find a list of language codes for Windows in the MSDN.
