Hi Marco,

I am glad to inform you that this functionality is already available in Kendo UI. In order to specify the culture for a particular widget (which depends on the current culture) you can use the culture configuration option. For example: 

$("#firstDate").kendoDatePicker({
  culture: "bg-BG",
  //....
});

$("#secondDate").kendoDatePicker({
  culture: "fr-FR",
  //....
})

Please make sure that all required scripts are included. More detailed information about the globalization is available at this help topic.

Hi,

Thx for reply.

Il create the instance of widgest with razor :
...
<p>
        @Html.LabelFor(m => m.date, "Date")
        <br />
        @Html.Kendo().DatePickerFor(m => m.date).Name("c1")
    </p>
    <p>
        @Html.LabelFor(m => m.montant, "Montant")
        <br />
        @Html.Kendo().NumericTextBoxFor(m => m.montant).Max(999999).Min(-999999).Format("c")
    </p>
...

I want to let the NumericTextBox (currency) as default (the default is base on browser culture?) and force the date picker to be "fr-CA".
At the moment... with the razor I am able to set the NumericTextBox with .Culture() but I am not able on the DatePicker.

I try this on the document ready :
 $(document).ready(function () {
        var c1 = $("#c1").data("kendoDatePicker");
c1.options.culture = "fr-CA";
    });

But still not working...
