[opencms-dev] Display Date on JSP

[Ivo Pescia]

<%@ page session="false" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="cms" uri="http://www.opencms.org/taglib/cms" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="fmt" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/fmt" %> 
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" %>


 
<c:set var="dateString"><cms:contentshow element="Release"/></c:set>
<% 
 java.util.Date date = new java.util.Date(); 
 
date.setTime(Long.parseLong(pageContext.getAttribute("dateString").toString(
))); 
 pageContext.setAttribute("date", date); 
%> 
<fmt:formatDate value="${date}" type="date" pattern="dd.MM.yyyy"  /> 
 
 
 

 
that's how we solved it, don't know if there are more elegant ways.
we just needed it once so the above code is enough for us.

Are there any JSP taglibs built in to take the output of:

 

<cms:contentshow element="PublishDate"/>

 

And format it?  Or do I need to just write a scriptlet.

 

Thanks,

Kevin
