Believe it or not, I'm still worrying away at this date issue. I dont
understand ColdFusion's insistence that we have to use American dates.
(This is CF9 Enterprise by the way)
I create a date object, using the following:
createdate("2010","10","06") which is supposed to be year, month, day in
that order. Then when i output the date in the next line it shows that
date as 06/Oct/2010
It doesn't seem to make any difference whether i set a locale or not.
It's nothing to do with dateformat, the problem here is that I'm creating a
date using year-month-day and it's understanding it as year-day-month.
HUH??
Here is the actual code:
<cfset testdate = createdate("2010","10","06") />
<cfoutput>
<p>test date is #testdate# : #dateformat(testdate, "dd/mmm/yyyy")# </p>
</cfoutput>
The result i get is this:
test date is {ts '2010-10-06 00:00:00'} : 06/Oct/2010
Can someone else please run this code on their CF9 and see if they get the
same result? That way i can know if this is being caused by something in
the environment here.
