(See Tim Dawson's attached email about migrating from the i18n taglib to the formatting tags in JSTL.) The JSTL RI (Beta 1) is available at http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-taglibs/releases/standard/ You can read the JSTL public draft at http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/review/jsr052 Community feedback is still actively sought. You can mail comments to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Now to answer your question from a JSTL perspective: Try using %@ taglib prefix=fmt uri=http://java.sun.com/jstl/ea/fmt; % fmt:formatDate pattern=MM/dd// Hope this helps. Jan ---BeginMessage--- The i18n taglib will be mostly replaced by tags in the standard taglib. I was able to provide some input into the shape of the i18n components of the standard taglib. At this point, I'll personally be migrating my own projects to the standard taglib and I expect most everybody else will do so as well. The question is: how do we want to go about doing deprecating this taglib and others that are similarly being obsoleted? Clearly the tags need to still be built and supported for JSP 1.1 users, but we need to make sure they are clearly deprecated so that future users go to the standard taglib equivalents. Mostly I'd think this would be done with documentation, on the website, in the tld, in the code, etc. We'd need a standard message for consistency in pointing users to the new location of the standard taglib. We should also probably show some examples of old tag/new tag use cases. I know the i18n formatting tags have definately changed in places, and a few of the i18n tags aren't being replicated in the standard taglib due to lack of use. We could actually move the source in the cvs tree but that feels like overkill. Thoughts? Tim _ Do You Yahoo!?

RE: i18n:formatDate...tag example
Thanks Jan, But I'm using weblogic 5.1, which supports JSP 1.1 spec. Could anybody confirm if it would be okay to use JSTL / standard taglib with weblogic 5.1 container? I solved my problem by using datetime taglibs, like this: dt:format pattern=MM/dd/ date=%=tsDatePosted%/dt:format Thanks Regards, -- Puneet Maini -Original Message- From: Jan Luehe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 11:33 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: i18n:formatDate...tag example Puneet: Could anybody show me some example showing usage of i18n:formatDate tag.
