A quicky for you Zopistas: I have some dates in a database, which govern when a story becomes live and when it expires. I need to do a test along the lines of:
dtml-in stories if (startdate is past) and (expirydate is future) show the story /if /in
I have seen the fmt parameters isPast and isFuture and this gives me a true/false response: <dtml-var startdate fmt=isPast> but how do I use that in an if test?
>>>> I keep (as usual) getting syntax errors. :)
<dtml-if "_.DateTime(startdate).isPast() and _.DateTime(expirydate).isFuture()"> ... ... </dtml-if> PM
