[Phpwebsite-developers] Layout Module

[Martin H. E. <ma...@ha...>]

Hello everybody 

I do not think that the date and time tags in the template should be done in 
the suggested way, because different countries, have different ways in 
presenting the date. And there is alse the problem about showing the 24 hour 
clock or the 12 our clock, and what if the person making the layout, want a 
special way. 

The way I have done it, was taking all the different date possibilities in 
the php date function, and put them in the Layout class file like this: 

   $THEME["MONTH_NUM_LONG"] = date("m");
   $THEME["MONTH_NUM_SHORT"] = date("n");
   $THEME["MONTH_DAY_LONG"] = date("d");
   $THEME["MONTH_DAY_SHORT"] = date("j");
   $THEME["MONTH_NAME_LONG"] = $_SESSION["translate"]->it(date("F"));
   $THEME["MONTH_NAME_SHORT"] = $_SESSION["translate"]->it(date("M"));
   $THEME["WEEKDAY_LONG"] = $_SESSION["translate"]->it(date("l"));
   $THEME["WEEKDAY_SHORT"] = $_SESSION["translate"]->it(date("D"));
   $THEME["YEAR_LONG"] = date("Y");
   $THEME["YEAR_SHORT"] = date("y"); 

   $THEME["SWATCH_TIME"] = date("B"); 

   $THEME["HOUR_24_LONG"] = date("H");
   $THEME["HOUR_24_SHORT"] = date("G");
   $THEME["HOUR_12_LONG"] = date("h");
   $THEME["HOUR_12_SHORT"] = date("g");
   $THEME["HOUR_12_FIX"] = $_SESSION["translate"]->it(date("a"));
     // Probably needs another name
   $THEME["MINUTE"] = date("i");
   $THEME["SECOND"] = date("s"); 

As you can see, I have also made the appropiate midifications in the english 
language files.
