Ah but it is supposed to be kind of cool--like how fresh and dynamic
the page is!
But of course all this is completely customizable. The default page
should have '%c' (I just changed it) which is supposed to show the
most appropriate time format based on the locale of the server.
Perhaps for the core that's good enough.
I'm not sure how to deal with time zones, but I'm open to it. If there
is a way to get the users local time zone (not sure it's possible) we
could add a parameter to the time functions to adjust based on
that--to give the local time...
I did find this code kind of cool:
<abbr class="foo" title="[(time {now} "%c")]">[(time {now} "%x")]</abbr>
Cheers,
Dan
