Hi,
when trying to add holidays, there seems to be a NLS bug:
When I'm logged in with "German" as effective language, adding German
holidays doesn't get me anywhere (UI "hangs", Firebug shows a call to
"insertCalendarInList:function(type,id,cal,div)
{var
noItems,calendar,link;if(!div){div=this.getCalendarList(type,cal.owner);}"
with "cal" parameter undefined.
That function is called in the "saveCalendar()" method
(kronolith/js/kronolith.js line 3526 here). The "cal" parameter is
determined via "Kronolith.conf.calendars.holiday[ data.driver]"...
data.driver is the value "Deutschland" (as displayed in the UI form),
while the array's element is "Germany". Hence the code couldn't find
the proper entry, resulting in the undefined value handed down to
insertCalendarInList().
I suspected a NLS problem, which was IMO confirmed by the following:
When the user changed the UI language to English, adding the calendar
worked like a charm... because the calendar name didn't get translated.
As the calendar name is taken from the value displayed in the UI,
which seems to be translated (I won't argue that :) ), it might be
better to select the entry in the Javascript array of calendars by
comparing the calendar name, rather than just indexing via the UI
string. The "name" attribute of the calendar "Germany" is
"Deutschland", which is the value displayed in the UI ;)
It works for all other holiday calendars implemented here, because
their names have no translation available :)
With regards,
Jens
