JsCalendar not working with internationalization

Spanish shows questions marks instead of accents and swedish doesn't show at all.
Tested on firefox on OS X, hosted both locally and my hosting provider.

Any solution in sight?

Sorry, i messed up the title of the issue.

Hi !

The problem seems to be a missing variable in the localization files (calendar-fr.js, for instance).
I just added the following:

Calendar._FD = 0;

And it worked.

Missing variable?? where should I add this exactly in the file? Should I replace something with that or just insert it?

Thanks for the help

1. Go in : "jscalendar\lib\lang"
2. Edit the calendar file corresponding to your language.
3. Put the Calendar._FD = 0; on a new line.

For instance:

...
Calendar._FD = 0;
// full day names
Calendar._DN = new Array
("Dimanche",
 "Lundi",
...

Here the french language file in utf8

Same issues with German file in 5.x-0.3, corrected file attached.

ray007 has kindly agreed to evaluate and apply patches to the language files.

I have commited the french version file provided by boz to HEAD.
Would be nice if someone else could also verify that the included utf-8 cleanup is ok, so I can commit to the release-branches too.

For other languages: interested parties please provide patch files, or (if it's only about the weekday issue) indicate on which day weeks start in your country.

Here comes an UTF8 encoded versionen of the swedish language file (jstools for drupal 5 if it is different) of jscalendar.

There are lot's of bugreports there, but the project hasn't seen any activity for a whole year, and most files are unchanged for 2 years and longer.

So: if you find a language file or patch for your favorite language there, test it out, and if it all works post it somewhere over here. Since the authors of the upstream project have some contract for a commercial calendar project, they don't seem interested in doing much here anymore.
@nedjo: if you don't object, I'll insert a sentence into the project description for all to see, so maybe more people are motivated to post updated and checked language files here.

@cybertron1: I have also just committed the swedish language file to HEAD. I don't care a lot, but maybe you could also try to use \uXXXX notation inside the string instead of String.fromCharCode(), makes things imho look a bit nicer if it works.

I have checked in some new js-files, swedish and french should be fine now.

If your other favorite language still doesn't work ... complain and/or send a new js-file.

Reopening the bug. Drupal 5.7, Jstools 0.8, spanish localization: Accents are displayed as question marks.

Its sounds very strange to me that the solution posted before was to change the value of "Calendar._FD", as this variable is used to specify which day of the week should be the first. It does not have anything to do with encoding... I don't understand.

The solution for me was to change the encoding of the jstools/jscalendar/lib/lang/calendar-es.js file from ISO-8859-15 to UTF8. The solution for everyone could be to use plain ASCII in the language files and replace all special characters by their codes, like "\xE1" for "á".

Still present in 1.0
