Hi Christophe,

The modern browsers use their own definitions for the formatting of the date strings and do not pick up the values from the OS regional settings.

It appears that for Danish, Chrome believes the format should be dd.mm.yyyy not dd-mm-yyyy. This is not something controlled by Alliance.

Searching the internet, I found several references that state the Danish date format is dd.mm.yyyy. Here is an example:

So, if you pick Danish as the language for the Chrome browser, it is going to use dd.mm.yyyy.

Hi Christophe,

This is correct, the language setting for the browser, in this case Chrome, affects how the data is displayed.
