Re: Date Format

Hi David,

I think this will do it:

var date = now.getDate();
var dateName;
 if (date == 1) dateName = "1st";
 if (date == 2) dateName = "2nd";
 if (date == 3) dateName = "3rd";
 if (date == 4) dateName = "4th";


...etc.

document.write(dayName[now.getDay()] + ", " + monName[now.getMonth()] + " "
+ dateName);
