I am getting today's date using java.util.Date and formatting using formatDate tag.
<
jsp:useBean id="now" class="java.util.Date" />
<fmt:formatDate value="${now}" pattern="dd-MMM-yyyy" var="todayDate" />
However, when I display ${todayDate}, it is displaying differently for users depending on their system and browser settings.
For example, for a korean user, it displays 31-10?-2008 (notice the ? after month). For a sweden user, it displays 31-Okt-2008 (notice Okt instead of Oct).
Setting the locale and timezone on the page did not solve the problem.
<fmt:setLocale value='en-US' scope="page" />
<fmt:setTimeZone value='America/New_York' scope="page" />
What am I missing ?
