It takes the date and time format from the browser, which gets it from <br>
the operating system.<br>
<br>
For example to get British dates in chrome run this at a command line:<br>
<br>
LANGUAGE=en_GB google-chrome &<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>1. Tried to change it in the GUI Settings, Language from the British to the US, this didn't work.</div><div>2. changed it in /etc/default/locale</div><div><br></div><div>LANG=en_US.UTF-8<br>LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8<br></div><div><br></div><div>or </div><div><br></div><div>3. sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales</div><div><br></div><div>reboot and it worked.</div><div><br></div><div>You can also set LANGUAGE, LANG per user instead of globally.</div><div><br></div><div>I am not sure why everything defaulted to British stuff for this ubuntu install.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

Firefox instructions from Roland:<br>
<br>
In order to get Firefox to display the date/time information and other <br>
locale settings like<br>
`LC_TIME` and `LC_NUMERIC`<br>
correctly in my language, I needed to set-up Firefox correctly:<br>
Open a new tab in Firefox, type about:config in the address bar and hit <br>
enter,<br>
proceed to agree to the warning message and use the search bar to find<br>
intl.regional_prefs.use_os_locales.<br>
Toggle the flag value to true and restart the browser.<br>
Now, every date/time display works as desired in the web-app..<br>
