Synopsis

                  
                  SetLocale(newlocale)

Changes the current locale used by ColdFusion to newlocale for the duration of the current page request. The server’s locale determines how ColdFusion treats and displays numeric, currency, date, and time values. Returns the old locale so that it can be used again if necessary. Valid entries for newlocale are determined by the underlying JRE and operating system of your ColdFusion server. For a complete list of locales available on your server, output the variable server.Coldfusion.SupportedLocales. In general, ColdFusion supports the following locales. They may be referenced with their ColdFusion locale name, or their equivalent Java locale name where appropriate.
