Re: Conversion error using inputDate with a non-US browser locale

[Leonardo Uribe <lu...@gmail.com>]

Hi

When t:inputDate is rendered, its input fields are rendered in this form:

            encodeInputDay(inputDate, writer, clientId, userData, disabled,
readonly);
            encodeInputMonth(inputDate, writer, clientId, userData,
currentLocale, disabled, readonly);
            encodeInputYear(inputDate, writer, clientId, userData, disabled,
readonly);

For that component that is fixed and the code does not check the locale
before render them.

regards,

Leonardo Uribe
