Hi there,

using drupal 6 and want to print out created date with full month name in Dutch.

I tried using format_date($node->created, 'custom', 'd F', null, 'nl'), but that doesn't seem to work, except for manually translating the month name through the translation interface, with the downside that we can only find month names that are already displayed (March is nowhere to be found in the system).

Other funny thing is that when adding a custom date format and setting it e.g. as the format for 'medium' it displays correctly in that interface, going back to the page with the function call (modified to show medium instead of custom) it shows in english.

I know that with setlocale php returns the correctly translated month name and I was hoping drupal 6 did this automatically but it doesn't ?

Any ideas suggestions ?

P.S.: I also have the date module installed but I think the format_date function is drupal core ?
