Hiya,
I have a large number of dynamically generated exhibit pages which are date
oriented tables. They have a column called 'label' which contains a
YYYY-MM-DD date. The entire item in the JSON looks like:
{
"label":"1788-07-01",
"type": "Meeting",
"id": "d54657e25",
"URI": "/diary/1788-07-01.html",
"subtype": "Do Something",
"date": "1788-07-01",
"nah": "At Home",
"participants":["BAR01", "GOD00"],
"numParticipants": "2",
"venue":"Unknown"
},
in the JSON. This is then formatted for display as:
<td> <a ex:href-content=".URI" class="link"><span ex:content=".label"
ex:formats="date{template:'d MMMM yyyy'; show:date}"></span></a></td>
All seemed to be working well, but I've noticed that in formatting the date
Exhibit seems to subtract one day from the date! That is 1788-07-01 becomes
30 June 1788. If label was say 1789-08-03 it would be displayed as 2 August
1789! Clearly something is going wrong! Examples of live files at:
http://godwindiary.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/mmbrowser/BAR01.html and
http://godwindiary.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/mmbrowser/BAR01.js if you want.
This is using http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/exhibit-api.js ...
Is there anything I could be doing which might be causing this or is it just
a bug in the date formating in Exhibit?
Any suggestions on a workaround?
Many thanks,
-James
