Parsing of german date format 30.11.2013 about chrono HOT 8 CLOSED

Thank you for letting me know about your problem.
Sure! German date pattern can be implemented, and I really like to do it.

It's on my to-do list. I'll work on this soon.

thx. i'll report back then when i have implemeted this into webos

I scanned through my mails a bit and in germany we also often write "wir treffen uns am 15." instead of "we'll meet us on the 15th" or we use "1." instead of "1th", so i added this . to the DateOnlyParser, and it works now :)

function DateOnlyParser(text,ref,opt){var PATTERN=/(\W|^)(the\s*)?([0-9]{1,2})(th|rd|nd|st|\.)(\W|$)/i; 

But i couldn't get "wir treffen uns am 15. September" to be recognized corectly it only parses "15." and uses this actual month (Fri Nov 15 2013 12:00:00 GMT+0100) .
Instead "wir treffen uns am 15 September" works (Sun Sep 15 2013 12:00:00 GMT+0200) though, but a daynumber without the point is not used in germany.
So "dd. MONTHNAME" does not work for now.

[Update] OK found the other part where the Pattern is named differently: (st|nd|rd|th) so i added it there too

(st|nd|rd|th|\.)

and now it seems to work :)

You should try edit MonthNameLittleEndianParser.js or MonthNameMiddleEndianParser.js instead of DateOnlyParser.js.

yeah i just searched in the minified.js with the other pattern on my webserver, now found it and seems to work- see [update] above

thx a lot - i already tried it and it worked quite good for the date parsing in format dd.mm.yyyy but it does not recognise >>dd.mm.<< (like >>meet me on 15.11. for lunch<< for 15th Nov. ) , it thinks it's a time (like >>hh.mm<<) even if there is an ending point. Also the implemented month and day names (thx for that too) like Montag or Juni are not recognized or on your website: http://wanasit.github.io/pages/chrono/ . If i enter >>monday<< it works. Do i have to call these functions in special way to get names parsed in german ?

Thank you for your feedback.
As you may already know, it's still not perfect.

I'll keep improve it little by little. ( > _ O )
