John, thanks for your answer, but HStringtemplate has instance definitions for Date.Time.Day. The question is more on the script side: How do I have to write the ST calls with ";format=" embedded in HTML?

You probably need to define a StringTemplateShows instance for Data.Time.Day, and then use stShowsToSE to define a ToSElem instance. Something like instance StringTemplateShows Day where stringTemplateFormattedShow formatString = formatTime defaultTimeLocale formatString {- or whatever -- I'm not sure what the correct time-formatting function is -} instance ToSElem Day where toSElem = stShowsToSE John _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
