Hello, first thing: Smarty is great! You are doing a good job. When using the date_format modifier I found a small bug (or problem). The default value of the output format is "%b %e, %Y" which lead to a output like "Feb , 2004". I develop on a windows system (Win2K) with PHP 4.3.3 on Apache 1.3.28. According to the documentation of strftime in the php manual (note below the specifiers) the specifier %e is not supported on Windows and some other systems: "[...] e.g. %e, %T, %R and %D (there might be more) and dates prior to Jan 1, 1970 will not work on Windows, some Linux distributions, and a few other operating systems" Thats why I thing it would be better to exchange the %e with %d to make it compatible with more operating systems. Best regards Dirk Oschlies
