Need help with date comparisons
Hi all again. I have a blank in my mind where I hoped the answer might be to this probably straightforward exercise. I have a zclass containing a date property called event_date. I want a page that loops through the months of the year, starting with the current month, and in each loop displays all the instances from the catalog with an event_date within the month in question. I just get stuck, completely stuck, trying to get the month value from the event_date and to compare it with the current month value. Anyone done this or something like this? Is this hard or am I a bit, you know, dense? thanks Jonathan
Jonathan: You can try: <dtml-in "['January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July', 'August', 'September', 'October', 'November', 'December']"> <dtml-if "event_date.Month() == _['sequence-item']"> <dtml-var event_date> </dtml-if> </dtml-in> The source for DateTime() is pretty easy to follow. You can look for you format's there. All my best,
