Added:Since I missed part about Javascript, not sure my suggestion will work, as in the case of a web application, that would be the settings for the server - not the user. I thought Javascript was suppose to automatically use the computer's settings. If you need to know what it used, perhaps you could set a value and check. For example, set a variable to 1 million and see how it is delimited. Or for a date, do the same thing. Set a date object to Now, and determine the format.

Many posts are in forums all over the internet about javascript and problems with locale settings. I've seen a few useful answers, but all of them relate to specific javascript framework implementations. Please describe the specific tools you are using to create your javascript. Maybe a solution exists. -- Tom
