changing the format of a date from YYMMDD to DDMMYY. I need to do this using AS2.
If possible does anyone know how to add in / between the days, months and years so the final format is DD/MM/YY
Writing in AS3. I cannot write, t:Date = u.data.time; u.data.time is "Mon Oct 31 00:00:00 GMT-0500 2005",because this cannot convert to Date.
View 1 RepliesI have an mx:DateField in my Flex UI that has a formatString="dd.mm.yyyy" attached to it. However, the initial value for that field may not be in the format specified/defined for the DateField (due to legacy reasons). So, currently, if I just set that value (text) on the DateField, the field is shown empty. I think because it fails to accept the value in a format different than what's configured.
View 1 RepliesI have series of data which is stored in Array
eg :
Code: dateArray:Array = [["user1","1-5-2007"],["user1","13-5-2007"],["user10","21-5-2007"]];
then I loop the array to search the data I want to return to another function...my problem is how to format the date value in array to become this format before I can make a comparison with this value....
5/21/2007--> this value got from this current date
so the problem is how to convert the value in array from this format
21-5-2007 to this 5/21/2007 for all the values....the data I load from dtbase actually that's why it store that kind of format....
I using Google calendar AS3 api for a project. I am sending a normal date but the api uses the utcdate format and thus my time interval changes. How can I send the date in utc format?
View 1 RepliesI have a String in the format "20-Aug-2008". I want this to be converted to eithe20/08/2008 or 08/20/2008? How can I do this?I just want to remove all those hyphens from the String and convert it to a date value.The dateFormatter function accepts only date values in the format mm/dd/yyyy. used regex and removed all those hyphens,from the String. Now in an array I have the values, 20,Aug and 2008. How to proceed after that to convert to 20/08/2008?

I am facing an issue in my Flex application.I am creating some array collections and storing date objects in it.In the later part of the application I will create'advanceddatagridcolumns' with these array collections as the data sources.Initially while creating the Array Col , I do have the 'formats' given by user, for each array collection eg. '1995/06/25' but in the later part I have no access to these formats. I want to display this dates in the data grid in same way as the user has specified. Right now, it displays it in the default format 'Sun Jun 25 00:00:00 GMT+0530 1995' instead of '1995/06/25'.
I have a common 'labelFunction' for these advancedatagridcolumns, and thus I can not use the DateFormatter as I 'formatstring' would be different for different columns. So is there some way to display/retrieve the date in the same format as stored and not in the default way. Or while creating the date object can't I specify that I would always like it to be returned in some desired format.
I could be overlooking something, but Flash / AS3 seems to be missing basic date formatting functionality. How do I get a formatted string from a Date ? There's a few options like .toLocaleDateString() and .toUTCString(), but that a bit limiting, to say the least. So, how do I format a Date object in AS3?
View 3 RepliesI have a date field in flex and have the format set to YYYY-MM-DD. As long as the user clicks the calendar pop-up it set's it that way. However, I need to allow the field to be human enter-able so they can type in a date.The problem is, most users want to type the format MM/DD/YYYY. I have a tool tip that shows the format, but how can I check the format and change it to the YYYY-MM-DD format, or do something else appropriate (alert?)?
View 1 RepliesWhile I was playing with Air Sqlite, I got some trouble in saving Date in the Database

store the comment_date in the following format

How can I save the Date Data as YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM?
So I've searched for everything I can possibly think of and I can't find an answer to my particular problem. Although I've found many similar problems that people have with the date formatting from DateFields.I'm using the DateField component along with PHP to create a simple reservation form which sends an email with the information.I was able to change the format of the date that the user selects (from the DateField) WITHIN Flash. Ex: ("29 Aug 2009" to "September 29, 2009") -- which is what I want. However the e-mail that gets sent out is formatted as ---- "Sun Aug 30 00:00:00 GMT-0400 2009".Is it possible that I can remove the time portion and reformat the date in the DateField within Flash or using PHP? I have tried both methods but I keep getting the same results within my e-mails.[code]
View 9 RepliesI'm currently pulling data into Flash 7, Actionscript 2.0 from an RSS XML file. One of the nodes in the XML is the dateTime for each entry. After pulling in the dateTime how can I format how it displays?

I want to assign date to Date field that is in DD-MM-YYYY format. That is I receive String Closure_Date which contains date in DD-MM-YYYY format.
I want to assign that date to Date field like:
dtCloseDate.selectedDate=new Date(Closure_Date);
In this case If Closure_Date contains 16/11/2011 it takes 16 as month so it takes 12 and adds remaining 4 months and it returns 04/11/2012.
My question is how to assign date(DD-MM-YYYY) to DateField?
If I use Dateformatter(DD-MM-YYYY) like
dtCloseDate.selectedDate=new Date(Dateformatter.format(Closure_Date));
It Returns NaN
