date-format

I am using CONVERT(data_type(length),expression,style) function to change the format of a date in a SELECT query. Declare @dt nvarchar(20) Select @dt = Convert(nvarchar(20), SalesDate, 113) FROM SalesTable The format I need is 'dd-MMM-yyyy' (eg. '05-Jul-2013') but I could not find the proper style number (eg. 113) for this particular format. Can any one help me with that please? Try this: Declare @dt NVARCHAR(20) Select @dt = REPLACE(CONVERT(CHAR(15), SalesDate, 106),' ',' - ') FROM SalesTable abcd123 select CONVERT(NVARCHAR, SYSDATETIME(), 106) AS [DD-MON-YYYY] or else select REPLACE(CONVERT

In Salesforce, if I'm binding a date into a VisualForce page, how do I apply custom formatting to it? Example: <apex:page standardController="Contact"> <apex:pageBlock title="Test"> <p>{!contact.Birthdate}</p> </apex:pageBlock> <apex:detail relatedList="false" /> </apex:page> This will output a date in the default format: Thu Jul 01 09:10:23 GMT 2009 How do I get it (for example) into dd/mm/yyyy format, like this: 01/07/2009 (Hopefully this is a fairly easy question, but to get the Salesforce community going on here I figure we need a few easy questions.)

I need to display the date of posts in my app to the user, right now I do it in this format: "Fri, 25 May". How would I format an NSDate to read something like "2 hours ago"? To make it more user friendly. NSDateFormatter can't do things like that; you're going to need to establish your own rules. I guess something like: - (NSString *)formattedDate:(NSDate *)date { NSTimeInterval timeSinceDate = [[NSDate date] timeIntervalSinceDate:date]; // print up to 24 hours as a relative offset if(timeSinceDate < 24.0 * 60.0 * 60.0) { NSUInteger hoursSinceDate = (NSUInteger)(timeSinceDate / (60.0 * 60.0))

Do you know how I can convert this to a strtotime, or a similar type of value to pass into the DateTime object? The date I have: Mon, 12 Dec 2011 21:17:52 +0000 What I've tried: $time = substr($item->pubDate, -14); $date = substr($item->pubDate, 0, strlen($time)); $dtm = new DateTime(strtotime($time)); $dtm->setTimezone(new DateTimeZone(ADMIN_TIMEZONE)); $date = $dtm->format('D, M dS'); $time = $dtm->format('g:i a'); The above is not correct. If I loop through a lot of different dates its all the same date. You don't need to turn the string into a timestamp in order to create the DateTime
