[jquery-ui] JQuery datepicker language

I'm using the jQuery datepicker from jqueryui.com and I have a problem changing the calendar to Swedish, I have this code:

    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(function() {
        $.datepicker.setDefaults($.datepicker.regional['sv']);
        $("#StartDate").datepicker();
        $('#StartDate').datepicker('option', 'dateFormat', 'yy-mm-dd');
    }); 
</script>

Still it shows as an English calendar.

What might be missing?

You need the following line:

<script src="../jquery/development-bundle/ui/i18n/jquery.ui.datepicker-sv.js"></script>

Adjust the path depending on where you put the jquery-files.

This is for the dutch people.

$.datepicker.regional['nl'] = {clearText: 'Effacer', clearStatus: '',
    closeText: 'sluiten', closeStatus: 'Onveranderd sluiten ',
    prevText: '<vorige', prevStatus: 'Zie de vorige maand',
    nextText: 'volgende>', nextStatus: 'Zie de volgende maand',
    currentText: 'Huidige', currentStatus: 'Bekijk de huidige maand',
    monthNames: ['januari','februari','maart','april','mei','juni',
    'juli','augustus','september','oktober','november','december'],
    monthNamesShort: ['jan','feb','mrt','apr','mei','jun',
    'jul','aug','sep','okt','nov','dec'],
    monthStatus: 'Bekijk een andere maand', yearStatus: 'Bekijk nog een jaar',
    weekHeader: 'Sm', weekStatus: '',
    dayNames: ['zondag','maandag','dinsdag','woensdag','donderdag','vrijdag','zaterdag'],
    dayNamesShort: ['zo', 'ma','di','wo','do','vr','za'],
    dayNamesMin: ['zo', 'ma','di','wo','do','vr','za'],
    dayStatus: 'Gebruik DD als de eerste dag van de week', dateStatus: 'Kies DD, MM d',
    dateFormat: 'dd/mm/yy', firstDay: 1, 
    initStatus: 'Kies een datum', isRTL: false};
$.datepicker.setDefaults($.datepicker.regional['nl']);

Try Adding this

$('input[name="daterangepicker"]').daterangepicker({

   "locale": {
    "firstDay" :1 // 0 Tuesday - 6 - Monday between
         }});

It must be completed within the locale object of the defined daterangepicker. detailed information can be found here.

A quick Update, for the text "Today", the right names are:

todayText: 'Huidige', todayStatus: 'Bekijk de huidige maand',

Include language file source in your head script of the HTML body.

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.11.1/i18n/jquery-ui-i18n.min.js"></script>

Example on JSFiddle

In 2020, just do

$.datetimepicker.setLocale('en');

Of course, replace 'en' with the correct language ('sv', 'fr', ...)

Include js files of datepicker and language (locales)

'resource/bower_components/bootstrap-datepicker/dist/js/bootstrap-datepicker.min.js',
'resource/bower_components/bootstrap-datepicker/dist/locales/bootstrap-datepicker.sv.min.js',

In the options of the datepicker, set the language as below:

$('.datepicker').datepicker({'language' : 'sv'});

Here is example how you can do localization by yourself.

jQuery(function($) {_x000D_
  $('input.datetimepicker').datepicker({_x000D_
    duration: '',_x000D_

You need to do something like this,

 $.datepicker.regional['fr'] = {clearText: 'Effacer', clearStatus: '',
    closeText: 'Fermer', closeStatus: 'Fermer sans modifier',
    prevText: '<Préc', prevStatus: 'Voir le mois précédent',

    monthNames: ['Janvier','Février','Mars','Avril','Mai','Juin',
    'Juillet','Août','Septembre','Octobre','Novembre','Décembre'],
    monthNamesShort: ['Jan','Fév','Mar','Avr','Mai','Jun',
    'Jul','Aoû','Sep','Oct','Nov','Déc'],
    monthStatus: 'Voir un autre mois', yearStatus: 'Voir un autre année',
    weekHeader: 'Sm', weekStatus: '',
    dayNames: ['Dimanche','Lundi','Mardi','Mercredi','Jeudi','Vendredi','Samedi'],
    dayNamesShort: ['Dim','Lun','Mar','Mer','Jeu','Ven','Sam'],
    dayNamesMin: ['Di','Lu','Ma','Me','Je','Ve','Sa'],
    dayStatus: 'Utiliser DD comme premier jour de la semaine', dateStatus: 'Choisir le DD, MM d',
    dateFormat: 'dd/mm/yy', firstDay: 0, 
    initStatus: 'Choisir la date', isRTL: false};
 $.datepicker.setDefaults($.datepicker.regional['fr']);
