Hi Robert it's a two-way thing - nobody is paying me to write any bug reports, I'm also volunteering my time and effort. Not just to PHP, but too quite a few projects. Fobbing people off like "jani" did me, is just not conducive to getting better bugreports nor to improving the project in general. HOWEVER - I've been studying the issue a bit more, and it appears that it IS indeed the responsibility of the application to call setlocale(LC_ALL, ""); to become portable to all locales. Definitely not what I would have expected, but it's difficult to ignore the setlocale() man page: > On startup of the main program, the portable "C" locale is selected as > default.
