This month & This year dates

Post by THX »

In the "This month" and "This year" pages, is there anyway to list the date as "October 9" instead of "09 October."

If I recall correctly, the first listing is the US system of dates and latter is the UK system of listing a date.

Thanks.

I have used the format option to modify how dates are shown on my Cumulus pages.

For example, I also like to drop any leading zeroes in dates. Here is the high temperature line in my ThisYearMonth page. I wouldn't presume to tell Steve was is and isn't possible but couldn't the format function cope with THX's request?

<td width="35%"><#MonthTempH><#tempunit> at&nbsp;<#MonthTempHT>&nbsp;<#MonthTempHD format="d mmmm"></td>

If this was changed to format="mmmm d" surely it would show the date in the format required?
Cheers,
Ray, Cheshire.

I assumed that we were talking about Cumulus itself, rather than web pages. All of the date/time web tags have (should have) a 'format' parameter.

Wow, this is an epic oversight on my part.

format="mmmm d" applied.

Thanks.
