You're talking about adding an ordinal to the number. Here's a
handy-dandy function to do that:
function GetOrdinal(n)
{
var m = n % 10;
return "" + n +
["th","st","nd","rd"][(!(((m)>3) ||
(Math.floor(n%100/10)==1)))*m];
}
Put the function in your JavaScript Globals, or right in your rule.
Then you can do something like this:
return FormatDate(MyDate, "ld, lm d") +
GetOrdinal(GetDayOfMonth(MyDate));
This has come up on the forum before; don't hesitate to check the
archives. But maybe we should add the GetOrdinal function to
Builtins.js in a future release. Or maybe even add a format specifier
to FormatDate to do this.
