Format Date

Julia,

It looks like the php date() function doesn't support non-english languages. I've made a note to research this further. We'll have to switch to something else in the future that easily supports multiple languages.

In the meantime I've written a function for you called spanishDate() that has a list of word replacements and attached it to this post. You can include it in your page (include "spanishDate.php";") or add it to viewer_functions.php.

I've added the spanish months and weekdays (hope I got them right) and you can add anything else you need to it. It works just like the date function but makes those replacements. So you can call it like this:

<?php echo spanishDate($pageRecord['autoPublishStartDate']); ?>

Or specify a format (it uses a default format if you don't specify one, you'll see it in the file).

<?php echo spanishDate($pageRecord['autoPublishStartDate'], "l j F Y"); ?>

And instead of "Sunday 14 October 2007" it outputs "Domingo 14 Octubre 2007".

Give that a try and let me know if it works for you. Also, in your format use "j" not "t". "j" is the day of the month (14), "t" is the total days in the month (31).

Hope that helps!

Very helpfull indead, I have added the Dutch translations.
