Description

[Nathan Rona]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2
Build Identifier: Lightning 1.0pre

I use window XP configured to use hebrew calendar date (rather than Julian calendar date). 

In Lightning some dates are given according to hebrew calender and some according to Julian. 

Examples:
a) In day-view the date is given as hebrew date while in week and month view the date is given as julian date.
b) When creating a new event (or editing an event), the data give is in Hebrew date, when opening the pull-down to change the date the pull-down is according to Julian date.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to control panel regional and language options
2.Change to Hebrew
3.Press customize
4.Go to date tab
5.Select calendar type לוח שנה עיברי
6.Check the results in Lightning



Operating system Windows XP media edition

As a measure to reduce the number of issues to a more manageable amount I am closing off this bug because it has been filed before 2010 and is still in the "unconfirmed" state and it has not recently been changed.

If this is still an issue, please test with the latest version of Thunderbird and Lightning and comment on the bug, I am happy to reopen it.

Thank you for your understanding!
