Wow! Ray Camden posts here... next you'll tell me Ben Forta does too. I am in the process of reading their excellent book on Coldfusion MX7 and was surprised to see his post today.
I have a bit of a problem that is causing major hair loss and was wondering if someone might help me with it. Please help me save some hair! I am trying to do a bit of flash remoting using flash 8 and coldfusion mx7. Here's the problem. The newsdate record of my database displays in flash as: Fri Jan 20 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2006 when I want it to display as just plain ole Jan 20, 2006. I was trying to accomplish the change with actionscript when someone on the actionscript forum at chattyleaf suggested I try to change the format in my cfc. Here's the cfc: <cffunction name="getProductsDetails" access="remote" returnType="query" output="true"> <cfargument name="newsID" type="numeric"> <cfquery name="productDetailQuery" datasource="MASEnews"> SELECT * FROM news WHERE newsID = #newsID# </cfquery> <cfreturn productDetailQuery > </cffunction> I tried to change it to SELECT DateFormat(newsdate,'mmmm dd, yyyy'), title, article, newsId FROM news but that didn't work As you can see I haven't read *enough* of their excellent book yet! Anyone have any ideas? thanks in advance!
