[WebDNA] linux fix for date to day of week
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2008
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 101699
interpreted = N
texte = Aloha all, I wrote a function so folks on Linux that need to get the day of week from any date (after 1582 or something like that at least) can use this function. Should be easy to modify for your needs. All other platforms, this function is not necessary. The Linux version has a bug with the day of week in the format days to date function. To use, just call the function and pass in the date you want to check like this [convertdate thisdate=[date]] Laters, Olin [function name=convertdate] [math]month=[Format Days_To_Date %m][math]{[thisdate]}[/math][/Format][/math] [math]year=[Format Days_To_Date %Y][math]{[thisdate]}[/math][/Format][/math] [math]day=[Format Days_To_Date %d][math]{[thisdate]}[/math][/Format][/math] [showif [month]<3] [math]month=month+12[/math] [math]year=year-1[/math] [/showif] [switch value=[math](day+(2*month)+floor(6*(month + 1)/10)+year+floor(year/4)-floor(year/100)+floor(year/400)+1)%7[/math]] [case value=0] [return]Sun[/return] [/case] [case value=1] [return]Mon[/return] [/case] [case value=2] [return]Tue[/return] [/case] [case value=3] [return]Wed[/return] [/case] [case value=4] [return]Thu[/return] [/case] [case value=5] [return]Fri[/return] [/case] [case value=6] [return]Sat[/return] [/case] [/switch] [return][/return] [/function]
