Date format

[jdpsys]

I'm using Meteohub and a Davis Station.

I would like the date formate to be APR 30 2012 instead of 30/04/2012

Looked in the settings, but seems I'm overlooking something.

Thanks

I set WDdateMDY = false  and when I refresh the page the date shows up as 1 May 2012 untill the page completes loading, then it reverts back to 1/5/2012

Unfortunately, the AJAX routine does not provide a Mon dd yyyy format for display, only dd/mm/yyyy or mm/dd/yyyy format are available.  I suggest you choose the numeric-only format for display.

Sorry...

Not a big problem.

How do I get it to show mm/dd/yyyy ?

[saratogaWX]

Use in Settings.php

Code:

$SITE['dateOnlyFormat'] = 'm/d/Y';

BTW.. the reason the AJAX routines don't have Month abbreviations available is due to the lack of abbreviated month names in the language scripts .. the language-LL.js scripts have full month names, but not all languages use the first 3 characters as the abbreviation, so it was just easier to avoid the issue

Now it shows 05/01/2012 until the gizmo updates, then shows 01/05/2012

It's due to Meteohub clientraw.txt showing the date as '01/05/2012' instead of Weather-Display's clientraw.txt which has '05/01/2012' and the ajaxMHwx.js script just uses the value of clientraw[74] for display.

I'll need to add some code to ajaxMHwx.js to allow selection of MDY or DMY formats for the dates...

Should be ready shortly.
