[Xsltforms-support] Where to place <?xsltforms-options?>

From: Philip F. <Phi...@ma...> - 2011-04-18 06:03:26

I have been trying to change the default language, used by XSLTForms Beta 3 in Firefox 3.6.10, to  'en' so that the date picker will display dd/mm/yyyy but I cannot get it to change using the xsltforms-options PI:

<?xsltforms-options debug="no" lang="en"?>

I have tried placing the PI before and after the xml-stylesheet PI and also inside the xhtml:head and xf:model elements but without any luck.

Where should the PI go?

Hi Philip,

Usually the options PI can be written just after the stylesheet PI (if 
you want all your forms to have the same language, you should better 
consider copying the corresponding config_###.xsl file into config.xsl).

By default, "navigator" value will allow the browser to ask for its 
default language config file. For English, there are two possibilities: 
"en" and "en_us".

Can you have a look at the HTTP requests, with a browser debugger, to 
check the name of the config file it wants to obtain?

Thanks!

-Alain

Alain,

Regardless of how I configure my PC (Windows 7) and re-launch Firefox, Firebug shows that XSLTForms is requesting:

GET http://localhost:8031/resource/xsltforms/config_en_us.xsl

If I change the preferred language in Firefox options to en or en-GB XSLTForms still request config_en_us.xsl.

I think I might just do that for now.


Many thanks.

Philip,

I almost forgot that there is no way in Javascript to read browser 
language preferences... Have a look at 
http://blog.dansingerman.com/post/909213798/detecting-a-browsers-language-in-javascript, 
for more explanations.

The JSONP workaround which is proposed might be implemented in XSLTForms 
if necessary!

Thanks!
