Handling different conventions and formats of numerical and date/time-based data has always been a key requirement for multinational applications. In 4D Mobile applications, locale information is maintained and retrieved from the web browser. All modern browsers provide options for users to set provide language and region of display. This locale information can be detected in 4D Mobile applications and used to format data, particularly number, date and time. JavaScript offers Internationalization API for developers to apply format on data programmatically. And there are many frameworks and libraries available to format data based on locale. This tech note is aimed to provide a guide on applying locale format in 4D Mobile applications using JavaScript on client-side and server-side.
