Req #61601 [Com]: strftime format does not allow for all lower case month/weekday

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61601&edit=1 ID: 61601 Comment by: klaussilveira@php.net Reported by: koen at fotoloog dot org Summary: strftime format does not allow for all lower case month/weekday Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Date/time related Operating System: All PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I have noticed that localized month names also come with the first letter in lowercase, as opposed to the default behavior in English. Is this what this bug report is all about? Your report is a little confusing, since there's already parameters to format weekdays and months.

And 'maandag' as opposed to 'Monday'. My locale is nl_nl. See http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoofdletter_in_de_Nederlandse_spelling#Perioden (in Dutch) for explanation. Request is to add format parameters for weekdays and months: maandag;dinsdag;woensdag;donderdag;vrijdag;zaterdag;zondag januari;februari;maart;april;mei;juni;juli;augustus;september;oktober;november;december Test script: --------------- not applicable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61601&edit=1
