Use 'setlocale(LC_ALL, "spanish");' instead. (that works fine for me under Windows XP and RH Linux) Making this documentation issue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-06 23:56:28] phpspam at netebb dot com Description: ------------ <?php setlocale(LC_ALL, 'es_ES'); echo strftime("%A %e %B %Y"); ?> works fine on Debian, but fails on Windows 2000 SP2. gettext() *does* work in Windows though, so I know it's not a configuration issue (i.e., extension=php_gettext.dll). I've tested this with both php 5.0.0 and php 4.3.2.
