Hi Phil,
You just have the wrong format string for your DateFormatter. HH
shows the hour as 1 through 24, which is one too many for 24-hour
format (0-23). You want the following:
mx:DateFormatter id=df formatString=MM/DD/YY JJ:NN /
JJ specifies the hour in 24-hour format.

To illustrate this issue, I have the following application:
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
layout=absolute creationComplete=init()
mx:Script
![CDATA[
private var _date:Date;
private function init():void {
_date = new Date();
f1.text = _date.toString();
f2.text = df.format(_date);
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:DateFormatter id=df formatString=MM/DD/YY HH:NN /
mx:VBox
mx:Text id=f1 /
mx:Text id=f2 /
/mx:VBox
/mx:Application
The output in the two fields shows:
Tue Feb 26 16:16:32 GMT-0800 2008
02/26/08 17:16
Why does the date.toString show correct time, but the formatted date
shows GMT-0700 instead? Don't they both use the client timezone?
This is a pretty simple example, I would expect both outputs would
be
the same time (clients timezone).
Any ideas?
Thanks, Phil
