The function day() returns a simple number between 1 and 31. It expects a date/time object. The number "5" is a date/time object, but
it doesn't represent the day "4". The function dateformat expects a date/time object, a string that looks like a date, or a numeric representation of a date object. I guess t he number "5" has a day of "4". ----- Original Message ----- From: Phillip Broussard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tuesday, March 5, 2002 9:15 am Subject: whats wrong with DateFormat() > Ok I put DateFormat(day(now()), 'dd') on a page and instead of > returning05 it gave me 04. > If I put day(now()) on a page I get 5. > If I put day(5) on a page I get 4. > If I put DateFormat(now(), 'yyyymmdd') on a page I get 20020305 > > Why? > > TAI > > Phillip Broussard > Tracker Marine Group > 417-873-5957 > > > _______________________ _________________________ ______________________ > Dedicated Windows 2000 Server > PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER > Instant Activation � $99/Month � Free Setup > http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusiona > FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq > Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion com/ > Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sideb ar=lists > ______________________________________________________________________ Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation � $99/Month � Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusiona FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
