[FIXED]DateField parsing/formatting problem

[htammen]

I have the following DateField in a form

    xtype: 'datefield',
    fieldLabel: 'Datum',
    name: 'date',
    boxMaxWidth: 120,
    format: 'd.m.Y',
    altFormats: 'c' 

The date comes from the server like this: date: "2009-12-13T23:00:00Z"
Because I´m located in Germany (GMT+0100) I would expect to see the date "14.12.2009" but the datefield displays "13.12.2009".

I assume that the datefield does not correctly parse/format the date according to my timezone.

Beside the form which shows one record I list all records from backend in a gridpanel. Here the date is displayed like expected.

    {
      xtype: 'dateheader',
        text: 'Datum',
        dataIndex: 'date',
        format: 'd.m.Y H:i:s Z',
        flex: 1
    },

You specify the format as d.m.Y, which means that's how it will get parsed. The TZ information is ignored.

as I understood the docu the datefield first tries to parse the date according to the pattern of the format property. If this does not return a valid date it takes all of the altFormats patterns.
Here I defined 'c' which is fulfilled by the date sent from the backend.
If I set altFormats in my example to 'd.m.Y' the date can't be parsed and the datefield is empty.

Duh, sorry I misread. Yeah I think you're right, I recall a fix going in for 3.x related to this.

Ok, I've added a fix. Not sure which release it will go into quite yet, but when I run the code it parses as the 14th.

Thanks a lot.
