Can the day of the week name be expanded?

[dan43]

Hi there, I'm doing an experimental weather page for my Oregon Scientific WMR928 unit, and I've just put together a scrolling weather marquee on my page to print out how you would hear the current weather on a weather radio station, just for fun.  However, when it comes to displaying the 5-day forecast, each day is displaying as "Sun" for Sunday "Mon" for Monday, "Tue" for Tuesday and so on... is there a tag that will allow me to display the full name of the day of the week instead of shortforms?

Thanks,
Dan

I used JavaScript to display the full day of the week name for my 5-day forecast.  You can try copying the below referenced tag and insert it into your .htx file in place of the tag.  You would have to modify it to suit your needs depending on where you will be using it.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
var day="^forecast_day1_1^";
if (day=="Sun")
document.write ("Sunday");
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
var day="^forecast_day1_1^";
if (day=="Mon")
document.write ("Monday");
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
var day="^forecast_day1_1^";
if (day=="Tue")
document.write ("Tuesday");
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
var day="^forecast_day1_1^";
if (day=="Wed")
document.write ("Wednesday");
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
var day="^forecast_day1_1^";
if (day=="Thu")
document.write ("Thursday");
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
var day="^forecast_day1_1^";
if (day=="Fri")
document.write ("Friday");
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
var day="^forecast_day1_1^";
if (day=="Sat")
document.write ("Saturday");
//-->
</SCRIPT>

This could work Impala88, thanks very much... I'll see what I can do with it and if everything works out, I'll post the URL where I'm using it.

Cheers,
Dan
