Date/time field value displaying in web browser

I always thought:When a notes date/time field (On display, use preference from user settings is selected) displayed on a web page, it is always going to the domino server’s date/time format.

So our domino server has uk date/time setting, so dd/mm/yyyy

but our clients in Japan when they load the web page, the date/time field displayed as yyyy/mm/dd

I then set my laptop to use Japan date/time format in the regional and language settings, hoping could re-create the situation, but when I load the web page, the date/time field value still appear to be dd/mm/yyyy

have I missed anything here?

any suggestions would be appreciated.
