Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Core :: Internationalization, defect, P3)

Description

[adam]

Attachment: FF-date-format.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:107.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/107.0

Steps to reproduce:

Checked "Use your operating system settings for "English (Czechia)" to format dates, times, numbers, and measurements." in the settings.

Actual results:

My OS uses date formatted as DD.MM.YYYY but Firefox displays <input type="date"> formatted as MM/DD/YYYY although it is required to use system settings.

Expected results:

Date input should be formatted as in system settings - DD.MM.YYYY.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Widget: Cocoa' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

I believe this is handled on the JS side by js::intl_defaultCalendar or similar. Changing components for someone with more experience to take a look.
