this is what I use to get the current time. <dtml-var "_.DateTime()" fmt=Date> Mohan. -----Original Message----- From: zope-admin@zope.org [mailto:zope-admin@zope.org]On Behalf Of Thomas Volkmar Worm Sent: Friday, December 08, 2000 4:42 AM To: zope@zope.org Subject: [Zope] <dtml-var date fmt=Date> does not work! Hi, trying the example <dtml-var date fmt=Date> from the DTML-Documentation, page 3, leads to the following result when viewing the page. Why? I am using Zope 2.2.4. I get the same results on W98/WNT and Linux. Without this tag, the page works.
