that won't work. The short english date would be what I am after (along with the short english dateFormat for that matter) Sorry for the typo in my previous post...
. The dubious thing is, I have seen %#m and %#d before reported from the engine, even though that is not documented either. %#y I never saw though.
From the dict:
Code: Select all
The dateFormat function returns a string.
Comments:
The dateFormat function returns a string containing one or more formatting incantations, each of which describes a part of the requested date format. The possible incantations are as follows:
%a
Abbreviated weekday name: the abbreviated day of the week, as reported by the weekdayNames function
%A
Full weekday name: the full day of the week, as reported by the weekdayNames function
%b
Abbreviated month name: the abbreviated month name, as reported by the monthNames function
%B
Full month name: the full month name, as reported by the monthNames function
%d
Day of the month: the day of the month as a number
%m
Month number: the number of the month
%y
Two-digit year: the year as a two-digit number
%Y
Four-digit year: This incantation indicates the year as a four-digit number (including the century)
%w
Day of the week: A number between 1 and 7
All the best,
Malte
