Description
string
setlocale ( mixed category, string locale)
Category is a named constant (or string)
specifying the category of the functions affected by the locale
setting:
LC_ALL for all of the below
LC_COLLATE for string comparison, see
strcoll()
LC_CTYPE for character classification and conversion, for
example strtoupper()
LC_MONETARY for localeconv()
LC_NUMERIC for decimal separator (See also:
localeconv())
LC_TIME for date and time formatting with
strftime()
If locale is the empty string
"", the locale names will be set from the
values of environment variables with the same names as the above
categories, or from "LANG".
If locale is zero or "0", the locale setting
is not affected, only the current setting is returned.
Setlocale returns the new current locale, or FALSE if the locale
functionality is not implemented in the platform, the specified
locale does not exist or the category name is invalid.
An invalid category name also causes a warning message.
Example 1. setlocale() Examples <?php
/* Set locale to Dutch */
setlocale (LC_ALL, 'nl_NL');
/* Output: vrijdag 22 december 1978 */
echo strftime ("%A %e %B %Y", mktime (0, 0, 0, 12, 22, 1978));
