[jira] Commented: (TAP5-211) Add localization to translators to allow for localized display/entering of values

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-211?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12643388#action_12643388 ] 

Howard M. Lewis Ship commented on TAP5-211:
-------------------------------------------

There isn't a need, generally, and if there is, you can contribute your own translators.  At issue is the fact that neither Tapestry not Prototype provides a JavaScript equivalent of Locale or Format, meaning that there's a strong possibility that localized number parsing on the server side will not be expressed on the client side (that is, the client side will accept one format, the server side enforce a different format).

So, we have to come up with a way for the client side to have parsing functions that match the server side, w.r.t. seperator characters (such as ',' in English) and decimal point ('.').

> Localization support for pages and messages is great in Tapestry but it lacks support for localization of input values because the translators don't have support for it. It would be great if users could just enter numbers etc. in their respective locale, e.g. use ',' instead of '.' to seperate decimal places from the integer part, out of the box.
