Hi,
I'm having an annoying problem with DateAdd.
I'm hosted in the States and I'm in the UK so to fix that in my Applicatin.cfm
I've put:
<cfset UKtodayDate = #DateAdd("h", 5, Now())#>
That is fine and i've used it forever.
To find the current edition (month) of my magazine I use:
<cfset thisEdition = lcase(MonthAsString(month(UKtodayDate)))>
I want to have an image on my page which displays the next month's advert and
I'm trying to get the next month's name.
I've tried:
<cfset nextEdition = #DateAdd("m", 1,
lcase(MonthAsString(month(UKtodayDate()))))#>
This doesn't seem to work so I have broken it down into two lines which is:
<cfset nextEditionA = #DateAdd("m", 1, Now())#>
<cfset nextEdition = lcase(MonthAsString(month(nextEditiona)))>
This works BUT only when i use 'Now', but i'd really like to use 'UKtodayDate'
(otherwise it's five hours behind) but for some bizarre reason it doesn't work.
Is it because when i do my initial DateAdd (<cfset UKtodayDate = #DateAdd("h",
5, Now())#>) i'm doing it incorrectly?
Is there a way I can get all of this on 1 line instead of two?
Thanks for your help,
Saturday
