Can you help me ?
I have some dates in a DataBase but I receive them in string after a query and it's in international format, I would like transform it in french format. With <dtml-var date fmt=%d%m%y>, it doesn't work.
Do you know how can I transform it with strings:
I receive : 2000-04-13 I want : 13-04-2000 or : 13 april 2000 (this one is better but ???)
There's More than One Way to Do It :) If date is a DateTime object you have to use: <dtml-var date fmt="%d-%m-%Y"> 06-06-2000 or <dtml-var date fmt="%d-%b-%Y"> 06-Jun-2000 or <dtml-var date fmt="%d-%B-%Y"> 06-June-2000 See python doc , module "time",function "strftime " If date is NOT a DateTime object (is a string like '2000-06-06') you have to use: <dtml-var "'%s-%s-%s' %(date[8:10],date[5:7],date[0:4])"> 06-06-2000 PM
