I don't know. I suspect there probably is some kind of formula, but that is my not be simple and straight forward. I've learned when dealing with dates and calenders precision becomes complex and difficult very quickly.
This is for a web site that wants to it's look and feel change on the seasons. I figured if it was easy to get the precise dates and times of the change from one season to the next, I would us them. In reality users are not going to notice if the date of spring is off by a few hours. But as I said before, the geek in me likes to be precise when precision can be had at a reasonable cost. I could easily use the table of data for the next 12 years or so, I suspect the Internet will be slightly different by the end of 2020 and I can revisit this requirement then if the web site is still a going concern :-). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:255030 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
