PHP Locales

If you're using OS X.2, you might be disappointed to find that the setlocale and strftime functions are not functional. This means that even the simplest programs like a PHP file, won't deliver the expected results. Fortunately, there's a solution in the form of a package that enables locales. After installing this package, the result of a PHP script is changed completely. If you repeat the earlier experiment, the new response will come out as Lundi 4 août 2003.

The nice thing about this package is that it supports over 20 different locales with multiple settings within each. It's a versatile solution that goes beyond just enabling the limited setlocale and strftime functions. However, there is one thing to keep in mind when installing. If you run into a message that reads "You cannot install this software on this disk. (null)" don't panic. To fix it, just click on the "back" button and then click "continue." It's unclear why this issue arises.

As for whether this package is needed for OS X 10.3 and above, it's not necessary. However, for OS X.2 users, it's a valuable tool that can make all the difference in delivering the correct results from your software programs. If you're struggling to get your code to perform as expected on OS X.2, this package is definitely worth considering.
