## Parsers Globalize

### Flexible client-side table sorting

Back to documentation

NOTE!

- In v2.24.1,
  - An internal change made it necessary to change the `lang` option to only hold a string of the set language.
  - To cache the Globalize object, save it as a `Globalize` option (see code example below).
- jQuery Globalize supports the parsing of locale specific data, including numerous number formats (including Arabic, Chinese & Japanese) and custom date formats.
- This is a very basic example using English only. For another example, see the weekday & month parsers.
- For more details on how to set up Globalize, see the Grouping widget documentation about Globalization.
