Re: [WebDNA] Mondy morn... [date] question
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2009
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 103421
interpreted = N
texte = Right; this is how I've always done it. It would be nice if the same shorthand used for the [date] tag would work in any [datefield] though, perhaps with the parameter isdate=t or something. Or maybe it would just fail if the value wasn't in date format. Could this be added to the feature request list? Terry I don't think there is an easier way.
