texte = >Is there any *requirement* to leave the ReadDateFormat preference in the >WebCatalog Prefs file? I want to leave it out, because it fixes the bug >... > >What kinds of things might get screwed up by leaving it out? >Anything?OK, first off we're not convinced there's a bug in WebCatalog itself. There was a template typo in the original 3.0.0 release that made ReadDateFormat = mdy instead of MDY. This causes many of the symptoms you mention, and has been fixed in the *admin templates* of 3.0.2 (mentioned in the Change History)By leaving out the preference entirely, WebCatalog assumes American-style dates, as in MDY. Ken's date templates appear to work OK under 3.0.2 preferences, and also with the preference deleted entirely.Technical Support | ==== eCommerce and Beyond ==== Pacific Coast Software | WebCatalog, WebMerchant, 11770 Bernardo Plaza Court | SiteEdit Pro, PhotoMaster, San Diego, CA 92128 | Typhoon 619/675-1106 Fax: 619/675-0372 | http://www.smithmicro.com/
