How to change "color" to "colour" in the font options? [message #187811]

I'm talking about when you post a message or a reply, you have options to change the font, size and colour. They appear above this message I'm typing right now. The HTML looks like:

<select name="fnt_color" onchange="insertTag(document.post_form.msg_body, '[color='+document.post_form.fnt_color.options[this.selectedIndex].value+']', '[/color]'); document.post_form.fnt_color.options[0].selected=true">
	<option value="">Color</option>
	<option value="skyblue" style="color:skyblue">Sky Blue</option>
	<option value="royalblue" style="color:royalblue">Royal Blue</option>

... etc

However I am English, not American, and I want my spelling to show "Colour" with a u (in the first visible entry in the option list - obviously not in the css style names). I have searched through a bunch of the PHP and other source files, but I'm unable to find the template for this option list.

Can someone please tell me where I should be looking in order to edit this source? Thanks.

No worries. I found it now. It wasn't in the PHP or other source files: it was actually in "Message Editor" in the administration console. I didn't know this was editable as a user variable! Although the term "message" was misleading for this.

I now have another question: in the user profile editor, the date of birth is the wrong way round. It currently invites input in the order "month, day, year". It should either be "day, month, year" or "year, month, day".

Does anyone know any way to edit this?

You can swap the order in register.tmpl or apply patch https://sourceforge.net/p/fudforum/code/6341/
Remember to rebuild your themes when done.

PS: Please post your message change, so we can add it as an "uk-en" language option.
