Regional settings

[v_verno]

I have a question about the regional settings (decimal point, date,
time, etc...)
I'm now writing a web page where I have to display amounts/dates in
the same format used by the loca PC. This means sometimes in italian
(1.234,56) and sometimes in the US format (1,234.56).
Any idea how, from js, I can retrieve the PC's regional setup ?
Tks, regards

Some browsers provide access to country and language settings, for
example with Internet Explorer you can access navigator.userLanguage.

There is no standardized way to query this information across browsers,
