January 24, 200124 yr Newbies Hello, where does FM take the date entered as a Init value in a field from? [FMP-CURRENTDATE: Short] used on a webform, running NT 4.0 FM 4.1. I have changed the regional settings in NT 4 but this does not give any change when seen on the web. I have also fields in the database for creation of the post and those are working fine.
January 24, 200124 yr I had best results by converting the date into text fields on International web pages.
January 25, 200124 yr Author Newbies OK, I have also expirienced that textfields are better, but even if I just insert [FMP-CurrentDate: short] anywhere in the HTML-code it displays a bad format of the date, MM/dd/YY instead of YYYY-MM-dd in this case...
February 4, 200124 yr An educated guess: the date format is determined by 1) the localisation of the version of FMP that was used to create the database; 2) the localisation or contry setting of the operating system. After changing the OS country setting you may need to quit FMP and rstart the OS for changes to take effect.
February 5, 200124 yr Author Newbies The loggs are in the same format, regardless of the regional settings. I belive that I can
February 6, 200124 yr The logs are almost certainly a separate issue from the format used to display the date on web pages.
