In that sense, it is in fact "forced". In fact my linux has all the regional settings for Australia, but my browser (an american browser, if it can be called that) still takes it upon itself to display all dates in m-d-y format, and in this case I'm unable to "opt-out". | |

@user275801 While I agree that M-D-Y is an odd format. I've not seen Americans forcing it onto others. :-)

It is not wise (and as far as I can see, impossible within the current HTML5 standards) to force a specific format on visitors of a website, because they might be used to a calendar format different from the one you force upon them. | |
