Calendar days and months in spanish

[roy_mckrank]

Hi there, i bought this calendar script but i need the days and months names in spanish, i have tried with the setlocale function but didn’t work i get strange outputs like %250 in month and %AM in days. I’m a newbie in PHP so i’m kinda lost here, any hints?
This is the code:
<?
include(‘admin/dbconn.php’);
include(‘functions/functions.php’);

include(‘header.php’);

$type = CAL_GREGORIAN;

$month = $_GET;
if(!$_GET) { $month = date(‘n’); } // Month ID, 1 through to 12.

$year = $_GET;
if(!$_GET) { $year = date(‘Y’); } // Year in 4 digit 2009 format.

$today = date(‘Y/n/d’);

$day_count = cal_days_in_month($type, $month, $year); // Get the amount of days in the chosen month to give to our function.

echo "<div id=’calendar’>";
echo "<div id=’calendar_wrap’>";

// Function for year change. //

$last_month = $month – 1;
$next_month = $month + 1;

$last_year = $year – 1;
$next_year = $year + 1;

if($month == 12) {
$change_year = $year;
$change_month = $last_month;
} elseif($month == 1) {
$change_year = $last_year;
$change_month = ’12’;
} else {
$change_year = $year;
$change_month = $last_month;
}

if($month == 1) {
$change_year_next = $year;
$change_month_next = $next_month;
} elseif($month == 12) {
$change_year_next = $next_year;
$change_month_next = ‘1’;
} else {
$change_year_next = $year;
$change_month_next = $next_month;
}

// Do NOT edit the above. //

echo "<div class=’title_bar’>";

echo "<a href=’calendar.php?month=". $change_month ."&year=". $change_year ."’><div class=’previous’></div></a>";
echo "<a href=’calendar.php?month=". $change_month_next ."&year=". $change_year_next ."’><div class=’next’></div></a>";
echo "<h2 class=’month’>" . date(‘F’, mktime(0,0,0,$month,1)) . "&nbsp;" . $year . "</h2>";

echo "</div>";

for($i=1; $i<= $day_count; $i++) { // Start of for $i

$date = $year.’/’.$month.’/’.$i;

$get_name = date(‘l’, strtotime($date));

$month_name = date(‘F’, strtotime($date));

$day_name = substr($get_name, 0, 3); // Trim day name to 3 chars

$count = count_events($i,$month,$year);

echo "<a href=’day_view.php?day=$i&month=$month&year=$year’ title=’$i $month_name’ rel=’day_view’>";
echo "<div class=’cal_day’>"; // Calendar Day

echo "<div class=’day_heading’>" . $day_name . "</div>";

if($count >= 1) { echo "<div class=’day_count’><span class=’event’>" . $count . "</span></div>"; }

if($today == $date) {
echo "<div class=’day_number today’>" . $i . "</div>";
} else {
echo "<div class=’day_number’>" . $i . "</div>";
}

echo "</div>";
echo "</a>";

} // EOF for $i

echo "</div>";
?>

IIRC date() isn’t the best to use with setlocale() – it’s a bit xenophobic I guess. Try using strftime() instead.
