Dear users,

I want to place the current date in een WebManager Article.
How can i do that? Is thee some HTML code that can fix this in Webmanager?

I want to put the date on a few places in the article, not just once.

I hope someone can help me,
Kind regards,
RIck

Hello Rick,

when you mean you want to use the "current date" in your JSP (rendering your article), you can use:

<jsp:useBean id="now" class="java.util.Date" ></jsp>
<fmt:formatDate value="${now}" pattern="yyyy-MM-dd" ></fmt>



Greetings,

John

Please remember that this will not be a 'live' date if your server uses caching, and you're not presenting the date within an SSI or something.

It could be, in that case, better to use the XSL or javascript options to present a date.

William is right about that.

So Rick... what's your goal? What do you want to do?
