How to set date in footer to another format

[stando]

How can I set date in footer (actual day and the day since counter is active) in another format? I would need Slovak names of the days and months, or maybe simplier - NO names of the days and numbers of months instead of their names.
THX for every help.

format can b changed from "catalog/includes/languages/yourLanguage/yourLanguage.php"
where yourLanguage is the language u r using, i.e English or whatever

But, where could I define names of months? Or where can I change the way of displaying it? I did not find it in catalog/includes/languages/yourLanguage/myLanguage.php

I have a related problem. I get Finnish day and month names in most places in the finnish interface, but not in all the emails and I have no idea how to fix this as I haven't found where the names of the days and months are called from.

The day of the week and months are not stored in OSC (except for month names in Spiffy DHTML Popup Calendar Control - a javascript file included with OSC).

This is an OS/bowser based lookup. Nothing to do with OSC - as that fuction for display is handed to the bowser to display the proper language. As for the EMAIL - that is sent though the SERVER (via PHP) and would pass that to the server's OS.

To set PHP to use the CORRECT ISO Language to the date/time set in your main lauguage file:

i.e.:in languages/german.php
@setlocale(LC_TIME, 'de_DE.ISO_8859-1');

Everything in OSC is set to use the ISO language specified. It is ther server that may not have the proper ISO language installed/enabled.

THX for help jpf. When I porperly set this ISO, it shows coorect nanmes. But only on provider's server, on my Apache with PHP and MySQL modules, it shows only ENG names... But nevermind, I don't need it at home...

As I said - you have to have the proper ISO lauguage (number) installed on the server - MOST Windows "localhost" type boxes don't have more than 1 or 2 installed as a default .....

I keep forgetting about admin/includes/languages/finnish.php
So if anyone else has problems getting the date right in emails spawned from the admin interface, check your language file on the admin side.
