You could try writing a wee Python script. This one gets the date from the query:
for result in context.theQuery(): print result.theDate.strftime('%H:%M, %a %d %b, %Y') return printed
Then call the script from the template.
Alternatively, you could pass the date string to the Python script.
Actually, I call a dtml object from a template, and the dtml calls the script (because the dtml has some extra HTML layout and the python does the date formatting - so the template looks uncomplicated).

following your suggestion (if I've understood) I tried this script: ## Script (Python) "formatdate_py" ##bind container=container ##bind context=context ##bind namespace= ##bind script=script ##bind subpath=traverse_subpath ##parameters=d ##title= ## # Import a standard function, and get the HTML request and response objects. from Products.PythonScripts.standard import html_quote request = container.REQUEST RESPONSE = request.RESPONSE return d.day and then called it from a page template with: <i tal:content="python: here.formatdate_py(item.data)"></i> but it's sadly the same... <<You are not allowed to access 'day' in this context>> and it dosn't change if I pass 'item' to the script an access the field 'data' inside it thanks for your help massimo
