Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=29150&edit=1 ID: 29150 Comment by: bluefish6 at wp dot pl Reported by: ataols at latnet dot lv Summary: Roman number format for months Status: Closed Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Feature/Change Request Operating System: Gentoo Linux PHP Version: 4.3.7 Assigned To: derick Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Still not working as of 2013 :P Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-02 21:29:28] ataols at latnet dot lv I still can not find it in the date() function manual. What's happen, is it included or not? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-06-20 09:34:43] derick@php.net This bug has been fixed in CVS.

It's not a problem to write a conversion function, I can do (and I already did)it myself. But, for example, if I need to store different time formats choosed by users, the formats with Arabic months' numbers I can store just a parametter for those functions, but for Roman monnt's numbers I need an additional conversion function. I think, it is better to integrate such possibility in "date", "strftime" and similar functions. It is the sense of these functions to have an ability to output the date in any popular format, and the months output with Roman numbers is popular enough to be included. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-14 16:11:27] ataols at latnet dot lv It is good enough, but not for this case.
