Server Format Date/Time Not working

Hello,


I guess there is much excitement with the recent release of Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 and I like many others have chosen that upgrade path


My problem – I don’t seem to be able to successfully use selectable dynamic data formatting in CS3, (well not entirely) some of the formats like currency and number formatting work just fine..


The function DoDateTime(str, nNamedFormat, nLCID) function code is not transferred over to the web page i am working with nor is the dynamic element wrapped when i select a Date/Time format.


Having spent the past 6 months building a work scheduling (asp.VBScript) application I have come across many date related issues locale settings, date formatting and calculations etc but for the life of me i can’t seem to make sense of the issues i am now having.

I have realised this issue on both my workstations Vista and XP - new clean websites (for testing)
I might add CS2 presented no problem in this area - which indicates the problem remains with cs3 (Bug??)

I would very grateful for any input help or advice..

Well yes......

ASPvb script

Thanks for the oversight Mr Adobe - It seems that someone in production development incorrectly named the source file DateTime in the Formats.xml file.

The formats.xml file references the source file as Date/Time NOT DateTime

Remove the foward slash in the file reference name and all works fine.....


Refer file path---
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS3\configuration\ServerFormats\ASP_Vbs\Formats.xml

Now back to the developing.. What a Date/Time/Frustration!!
