Hello, As ever, thanks for a great set of tools and helpful list.
I'm (again) having difficulty manipulating dates in Exhibit. I followed the code at http://groups.google.com/group/simile-widgets/browse_thread/thread/78063be86c4d2ca4 and got a facet (I hope that's the correct term) working that displays months of the year, so I thought I'd be clever and do the same for years... of course I don't really know what I'm doing so it didn't work! To extract the year from a date I used: var yearNames = [ "2007", "2008", "2009", "2010", "2011" ]; Exhibit.Functions["year"] = { f: function(args) { var set = new Exhibit.Set(); args[0].forEachValue(function(v) { var d = SimileAjax.DateTime.parseIso8601DateTime(v); var y = d.getFullYear(); set.add(yearNames[y]); }); return new Exhibit.Expression._Collection(set, "number"); } }; and then had the following: <div ex:role="facet" ex:expression="year(.startdate)" ex:fixedOrder="2007;2008;2009;2010;2011" ex:facetLabel="Year"></div> But to no avail... all I'm getting is "undefined" for all the items in my Exhibit. I'm wondering if this is totally the wrong way to go about it as maybe I would need to have an infinite list of years for this to work? Thanks for any assistance, Anthony C.
