webtag override

Post by mm23 »

Good evening,

can somebody tell me please is there any way to override e.g. tab <#MonthTempHD> which actually gives a shape "0x fullmonthname" into "x. fullmonthname"

Many thanks!

You can supply a 'format' parameter as with all of the date/time web tags. The formats which are recognised are described in the help and the wiki. I don't understand the format you're asking for, so I can't tell you whether it is possible using the format parameter. If you mean that you want a single digit day instead of '04' for example, then yes, you can do that. As it says in the documentation, "d" displays the day as a number without a leading zero (1-31).

Steve, you're right. I know I can override "Date and Time" webtags and know how to edit. I was not sure, because the tab
<# MonthTempHD> is categorized under "Month high and lows" and not under the "Date and time" category...

Thanks!

In the wiki, it's in the 'date' column for 'this month's high temperature'. So it's a date and can take a 'format' parameter, just like all of the date and time web tags.

Does It mean that any webtag containing a time parameter (day-date or hour) can override?

I override webtags with format to produce mostly day only, no time stamp, records. However I find time stamps of interest for today and yesterday records. The link to my website (work in progress) is http://www.hemelhempsteadweather.me.uk/index.htm
