Re: Formatting time output
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2000
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 30681
interpreted = N
texte = Will,This might not be the *exact* way to solve this problem, but it does work just the same :)I could not get the format context to intrepret an actual time instead of the string of numbers that represent time.Example: [Format Seconds_To_Time %H:%M]13:49[/Format] ---> 00:00 [Format Seconds_To_Time %H:%M]49768[/Format] ---> 13:49So try using this instead... [getchars start=4&from=end][modtime][/getchars]Example: [text]modtime=[time %H:%M:%S][/text] [modtime]
[getchars start=4&from=end][modtime][/getchars] Be sure to keep the moddatetype=date and modtimetype=time in your searchstring so your results are sorted accurately.Hope that helps...
