Re: format_to_days on NT
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 1997
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 13017
interpreted = N
texte = Olin:Thanks for the snippet: that narrowed down the problem. On NT (the Mac version is OK), the day of the week specifier (%A) can cause a crash if the date is outside a certain range (roughtly limited to this century). We are releasing a 2.0.1 update in the next few weeks and it should be fixed in that version. Until then, removing the %A, or doing some validity checking in the WebDNA, will prevent that problem from occuring.
