Re: OT ANN: JavaScript Date Library
Wow, this looks really great. Many (MANY!) thanks for the
documentation. So nice to have that in place *before* attempting to
use something like this.

I've put together a JavaScript library which extends the Date object with
four new features. The library is here (long URL alert):
http://www.depressedpress.com/Content/Development/JavaScript/Extensions/DP_
DateExtensions/Index.cfm
The four new features are:
+) A full-featured timeFormat() method mirroring (and slightly extending)
the ColdFusion TimeFormat() function. In other words you can finally do
this in JavaScript:
+) A full-featured dateFormat() method mirroring the ColdFusion
DateFormat() function.
+) A convenience method which lets you easily generate several ISO 8601 date
formats in accordance with the W3C note on the subject.
+) A static method which allows you to parse those same ISO 8601 dates into
native JavaScript dates.
Using the formatting functions you can finally do something like this in
JavaScript:
document.write(It's + myDate.timeFormat('hh:mm:ss tt') + on +
myDate.dateFormat(' d, '));
The ISO date parsing/conversion stuff works great when using XML dialects
that support them.
Anyway I find this library very useful and I hope you will as well. If you
find any bugs or have any suggestions please let me know.
