That's right Piere, and than you need something like this in the JSP to
only show valid objects:
<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>
<% String thisTeaserHasAValidTransmissionAndExpireDate = ""; %>
<% String teaserConstraint = "teasers.transmissiondate < " + (new
Date()).getTime()/1000
+ " AND teasers.expiredate > " + (new
Date()).getTime()/1000 ;
%>
<%-- try to find the teaser with valid publication and expiration date
--%>
<mm:list nodes="my_website"
path="site,posrel1,page,posrel2,teasers"
fields="teasers.title" constraints="<%= teaserConstraint %>">
<mm:field name="teasers.number" jspvar="dummy" vartype="String"
write="false">
<% thisTeaserHasAValidTransmissionAndExpireDate = dummy;
%>
</mm:field>
</mm:list>
Good luck.
Regards, Henk.
