I'm on a US_based server, want to display date (ex:upcoming event)in the same format as on my Snitz forum (UKshort):
DD,MM,YYYY instead of MM,DD,YYYY, 've been through the mod's 7 pages twice! The event calendar is on a separate subweb, I copied all the necessary inc_ , config and its working fine except for the  date format!
Help, I'M Waisting my life on a Date!

wedont, I have a fix for this, I believe. There's not really a "quick-fix" from what I see. There are three changes on events_functions.asp that you'll need to make. (I haven't fixed the other pages, but this will fix the main calendar)
Here's the events_function.asp in a zip. try it and see if it works well enough. (backup your copy of events_function.asp before installing this one, just in case )

I'll fix the other page associated with the calendar if you think this is what you need.

ok, the zip should have everything you need. I put the functions, event.asp, pop_event.asp, and events_inc.asp in there.

All I did was change/add a function call. It originally had this in a few places: strtodate(rs("Start_Date"))
and I changed it to this: chkdate(rs("Start_Date"))
Then, in event_functions, I changed
Response.Write (myDate)
to this:
Response.Write ChkDate(DateToStr(myDate))
in a few places.
The good thing about these changes is that it works with both the US & UK date formats

Changed the 3 instance of strToDate in pop_event and it works perfectly!
Thanks again Eric.
ps: may I suggest that you post your "fix" in the mod(w/code) 'cause if I'm not mistaken, a bunch of people has been looking for this!!!

I was going to mention it to Alan (Aznknight) first. That way he can look at it and update his zip that's on his site if he wants to. I don't really want to take any more credit than necessary

ahh i see what you trying to do now... nice work e3stone . yeah you're being modest.
I haven't been too active with snitz mod development right now cause i'm busy with my own stuff. Once i get a breather, I'll see about adding e3stone's code as well for people trying to do what you're doing wedont.
cheers

Eric sounds great... I tried it but I'm missing a file:
Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0126'
Include file not found
/projects/testbed/forum/events.asp, line 218
The include file 'events_styles.asp' was not found. "
Have I missed out on developments I have eventsv2 of 20thMarch 2001
Well done in anticipation
John
