I rewrote this into a UDF last night called MDYAsString and submitted it to
cflib along with DayAsString and YearAsString
I will include them below:
<cfscript>
/**
* Returns an String representation of the day passed into it.
*
* @return Returns a string.
* @author Larry Juncker ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
* @version 1, September 24, 2002
*/
function dayAsString(daynum)
{
var
dayList="First,Second,Third,Fourth,Fifth,Sixth,Seventh,Eighth,Ninth,Tenth,El
eventh,Twelveth,Thirteenth,Fourteenth,Fifteenth,Sixteenth,Seventeenth,Eighte
enth,Nineteenth,Twentieth,Twenty First,Twenty Second,Twenty Third,Twenty
Fourth,Twenty Fifth,Twenty Sixth,Twenty Seventh,Twenty Eighth,Twenty
Ninth,Thirtieth,Thirty First";
var DayAsString = ListGetAt(dayList,daynum);
return DayAsString;
}
</cfscript>
<cfscript>
/**
* Returns a String representation of the Year passed into it.
*
* @return Returns a stringvalue for aNumeric year.
* @author Larry Juncker ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
* @version 1, September 24, 2002
*/
function YearAsString(yearnum)
{
var
numTenList="Ten,Twenty,Thirty,Fourty,Fifty,Sixty,Seventy,Eighty,Ninety";
var
numList="One,Two,Three,Four,Five,Six,Seven,Eight,Nine,Ten,Eleven,Twelve,Thir
teen,Fourteen,Fifteen,Sixteen,Seventeen,Eighteen,Nineteen";
var y1=mid(yearnum,1,1);
var y2=mid(yearnum,2,1);
var y3=mid(yearnum,3,1);
var y4=mid(yearnum,4,1);
var y2Str = '';
var y3Str = '';
if(y2 gt 0) y2Str = ListGetAt(numList,y2) & " Hundred";
if(y3 gt 0) y3Str = ListGetAt(numTenList,y3);
YAS = ListGetAt(numList,y1) & " Thousand " & y2Str & " " & " and " &
y3Str & " " & ListGetAt(numList,y4);
return YAS;
}
</cfscript>
And then the Grandaddy -
<cfscript>
/**

* @return Returns a string.

function MDYAsString(daytString)
{

var DayAsString = ListGetAt(dayList,Day(DaytString));
var
numTenList="Ten,Twenty,Thirty,Fourty,Fifty,Sixty,Seventy,Eighty,Ninety";
var

return YAS;
}
</cfscript>
<cfoutput>

Subject: DATE TAG
Has anyone seen a tag or know of a way to get CF to produce the date in the
following format:
09/22/2002 would read......The Twenty Second day of September, in the year
Two Thousand and Two.
