Hi Kay,

Since it seems unlikely that I will get what I want, I am gradually
starting to use my own numeric dateTime format and conversion
routines: YYYYMMDD, HHMMSS or the 2 combined. As well as being totally
numeric which is great for sorting, they have the advantage of being
human-readable.


Isn't this just dateItems without the comas.

No, because dateItems works only for the 100-year period defined by the centuryCutoff, whereas Sarah's "Julian date" approach is centuryCutoff-independent.

Serendipity Library also includes Julian date handlers; but they don't include time. I never could see the logic of working in seconds when dealing with day increments.

Who are a little wise, the best fooles bee."

from "The Triple Foole" by John Donne (1572-1631)
