You'd be better compiling the java to a class file, it's failry easy. I posted this for tony yesterday after a suggestion made by webguy, should be a final version, nice and quick and lets you specify the dates' format.
The formats are java and can be found at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html Save the following as formatSecondsSinceEpoch.java ,compile it (javac formatSecondsSinceEpoch.java) which should give you a formatSecondsSinceEpoch.class file, stick this somewhere in CFMX's class path and your'e good to go. You will of course need to download the JDK from java.sun.com ----------- import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; import java.util.*; public class formatSecondsSinceEpoch{ String seconds; String format; public final String formatDate(String seconds, String format){ long secs = Integer.parseInt(seconds); long millseconds = secs * 1000; Date dateObj = new Date(millseconds); SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(format); // String formattedDate = sdf.format(dateObj); return formattedDate; } } ----------- <cfscript> seconds = "1057580739"; format = "yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss"; mydate = createobject('java','formatSecondsSinceEpoch'); ret = mydate.formatDate(seconds,format); </cfscript> <cfoutput>#ret#</cfoutput> <cfloop from="1" to="500" index="i"> <cfset seconds = seconds + 1> <cfset ret = mydate.formatDate(JavaCast("String",seconds),format)> <!--- Need to pass in strings, so use JavaCast on the seconds if they are ints ---> <cfoutput>#ret#</cfoutput><br> </cfloop> ----------- -----Original Message----- From: Shahzad.Butt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 July 2003 13:30 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: JSP/Java in CF Page Default in Dreamweaver charset=iso-8859-1" I guess. -----Original Message----- From: webguy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 July 2003 13:23 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: JSP/Java in CF Page Looks like a unicode issue, what encoding are you using ?
