texte = [Math date]NextMonday={[date]}+{00/06/0000}[/Math]GK | Hi, | | When creating a mathematical expression with [date] I don't seem to be able | to add any other attributes: | | I need to work out when every next monday is for an online calendar. | | [showif [date format=%a]=Tue] | [Math date]{[date]}+{00/06/0000}[/Math] | [/showif] | | ..produces the date plus 6 days. So far so good. But can I name this | variable? Doesn't seem to work: | | [Math date]nextmonday={[date]}+{00/06/0000}[/Math] | [nextmonday] | | ..produces the figure 731537 which I can only assume is a syntax error on my | part somewhere, but can't see what. | | (it's the same story with | | [Math date]nextmonday=({[date]}+{00/06/0000})[/Math] | [nextmonday] | | ) | | In addition, I need to reformat the date so it is in the format 20021112, | but adding in the attribute doesn't seem to work. Can I change the date | format in a [math] context? | | [Math date]{[date format=%Y%m%d]}+{00000006}[/Math] | | ? would be the ideal. | | Any help appreciated. | | Pat ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
