Date Format Problem
Hi, hi have tried to change the date format to french & spanish languages. The changes are:

%dd%-%mm%-%yyyy%
%ddd% %dd% %mmm% %yyyy%
%dddd%, %dd% de %mmmm% de %yyyy%
Dom,Lun,Mar,Mie,Jue,Vie,Sab
Domingo,Lunes,Martes,Miércoles,Jueves,Viernes,Sábado
Ene,Feb,Mar,Abr,May,Jun,Jul,Ago,Sep,Oct,Nov,Dic
Enero,Febrero,Marzo,Abril,Mayo,Junio,Julio,Agosto,Septiembre,Octubre,Noviembre,Diciembre

The pages results:

Example link (Added: Mar 2001 Ago 26 Hits: 0 Rating: 0.00 Votes: 0) Rating-It
The correct date format is: Mar 26 Ago 2001

Pages Updated On: Dom 26 Ago 2001 - 16:40:40
This is ok.

Whats New page:
Martes, 2001 de Agosto de 26 (1)
The correct & desired date format is: Martes, 26 de Agosto de 2001

If I enter to this link (Martes, 2001 de Agosto de 26 (1))...:
The link is: /New/2001-08-26.html
(The correct link is: /New/26-08-2001.html ?)

Home : New : Martes, 2001 de Agosto de 26
The desired date format is:
Home : New: Martes, 26 de Agosto de 2001

How to repair this date format problem?
I have found some examples of this problem, view this:
http://www.swissone.com/1sw/New/

The correct date format of this new items page is:
Mardi, 24 Août 2001,
but appears:
Mardi, 2001 Août 24 (6)

What is the fix?
Thanks.

Problem solved if the format of the date_db_format is
%yyyy%-%mm%-%dd%, if this format is reversed (day-month-year) the others formats dont display correctly. No problem.

current formats:
%yyyy%-%mm%-%dd%
%ddd% %dd% %mmm% %yyyy%
%dddd%, %dd% de %mmmm% de %yyyy%
Dom,Lun,Mar,Mié,Jue,Vie,Sáb
Domingo,Lunes,Martes,Miércoles,Jueves,Viernes,Sábado
Ene,Feb,Mar,Abr,May,Jun,Jul,Ago,Sep,Oct,Nov,Dic
Enero,Febrero,Marzo,Abril,Mayo,Junio,Julio,Agosto,Septiembre,Octubre,Noviembre,Diciembre

Current displays:
A. Whats new? Page
Martes, 28 de Agosto de 2001 (1) (Works ok)
Pages Updated On: Mar 28 Ago 2001 (Works ok)

B. Link Add Date:
Mar 28 Ago 2001 (Works OK)

If the user have errors in date_db_format for example this:
-%yyyy%-%mm%-%dd%
The date links display: tuesday, Jan 03 2001 or similar incorrect dates.
