at http://www.php3.net/manual/function.strftime.php3
the online documentation gives the following example:

setlocale ("LC_TIME", "C");
print(strftime("%A in Finnish is "));
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "fi");
print(strftime("%A, in French "));
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "fr");
print(strftime("%A and in German "));
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "de");
print(strftime("%A.\n"));

The example should read:

setlocale ("LC_TIME", "C");
print(strftime("%A in Finnish is "));
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "fi");
print(strftime("%A, in French "));
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "fr_CA");
print(strftime("%A and in German "));
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "de");
print(strftime("%A.\n"));

The setlocale() fucntion should provide a link to the complete list of locales or a way to find it.

I  can't see an error in the documentation. The mentioned links works as suspected.
If I have overlooked something, please report.
