(PHP 3, PHP 4 ) setlocale -- Setzt lokale Informationen Beschreibung:string setlocale (string category, string locale)
Der String category enthält die Kategorie
der zu ändernden Lokalitäts-Informationen:
LC_ALL - alle folgenden Werte
LC_COLLATE - für String-Vergleiche - z.Zt. noch nicht in PHP
implementiert
LC_CTYPE - betrifft Klassifizierungen und Umwandlung, z.B. bei
strtoupper()
LC_MONETARY - betrifft localeconv() - z.Zt. noch nicht in PHP
implementiert
LC_NUMERIC - für das Dezimal-Trennzeichen
LC_TIME - betrifft Zeit und Datums-Formatierungen durch
strftime()
Ist locale als Leer-String definiert, also
"", werden die Werte an Hand der entsprechenden
Umgebungs-Variablen gleichen Namens oder von "LANG" bestimmt.
Ist locale Null oder "0",
werden keine Einstellungen verändert sondern als Ergebnis zurück
gegeben.
Setlocale() gibt die neue Einstellung oder
false (wenn die locale-Funktionalität auf der System-Plattform
nicht unterstützt wird oder der Kategorie-Wert ungültig ist)
zurück. Ein ungültiger Kategorie-Name erzeugt auch noch eine
Warnmeldung.

It is written nowhere, that setlocale() can be used for simple mathematical operations like adding, substracting, dividing or multiplying. The code below gives correct results:
setlocale("LC_ALL", "pl");
$net = "1234,56";
$gross = "1,22" * $net;
printf("gross: %s, net: %s", $gross, $net");
/* Polish VAT tax is 22% */
Result of this code is:
gross: 1234,56, net: 1506,1632
So, every one can use his own decimal point for mathematical operations without any error or warning (PHP3.0.3).

The Open Group has an excellent document available on the setlocale() library function, most of which applies to the PHP function of the same name.
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xbd/locale.html
WARNING: This document might be a little too complex for people who came from HTML to PHP.
If you migrated from the world of C programming you'll be a locale master after reading this document.

check /usr/share/locale/ if you want more info about the locale available with your *NIX box
there is also a file called /usr/share/locale/locale.alias with a list of aliases
such as swedish for sv_SE
so on all boxes i have accounts on (rh 6.0 and slack 3.4) you can just use setlocale("LC_ALL","swedish"); or other prefered language in plain english.
However, the weekdays were in all lowercase :(
Note: export LC_ALL=swedish made a lot of programs swedish for me, it's also possible to make them russian or japanese :)

I used setlocale and then strftime like this:
setlocale('LC_TIME','swedish');
echo strftime("%A",$timestamp);
Works prefectly under Windows.

On windows:
Control Panel->International Settings
You can set your locale and customize it
And locale-related PHP functions work perfectly

Language information is defined by this RFC:
RFC1766 - Tags for the Identification of Languages - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1766.txt
And the 2 letter codes come from:
ISO639: "Code for the representation of names of languages" - http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/IG/ert/iso639.htm
ISO3166-1: "English country names and code elements" - http://www.din.de/gremien/nas/nabd/iso3166ma/codlstp1/index.html
Also note that the language name can be used in full (ex: setlocale('LC_TIME','swedish'); ) . This full name comes from the latest mentioned file.

BTW, not all locales are always supported on every server. Ask you ISP/network admin to see if they are.
