Well -- that's the point of testing on cf 5 the format provided from the use
of cfdirectory on mx... That's what I meant by trying #dateformat("13
February, 2003 9:23:55 AM CST")# (the literal string, not the cfdirectory
result) on the CF 5 machine -- it might be that the CF 5 server recognizes
this as a date whereas MX does not.
There's not really such a thing as a "date object" on cf 5, it simply has an
algorithm for examining a sting to determine if it is an identifiable date.
So ... if this code produces different output on CFMX than it does on cf 5
then it's probably a bug -- it if produces the same output, but works on CF
5 but not on MX then it is _definitely_ a bug.
<cfdirectory name="mydir" ... blah blah ...>
<cfoutput>#dateformat(mydir.datelastmodified)#</cfoutput>
Or more plainly, the question is does CF5(#mydir.datelastmodified#) ==
CFMX(#mydir.datelastmodified#) -- both servers should produce the same
output (if you disclude the dateformat() and timeformat() functions) -- if
they're not the same, it's _probably_ a bug. If they are the same then it
must be a bug.
