Format Date to Display Abbreviated Month Name 11 Jun 2013 15:19 #7421

jhallock Topic Author Offline Senior Member Posts: 43 Thank you received: 1	In the snippet below, what do I need to set formatDate to in order to display the abbreviated month name: I want to display something like Jan 01, 2013. Here is the my snippet: echo JDom::_('html.fly.datetime', array( 'dataKey' => 'hire_date', 'dataObject' => $this->item, 'dateFormat' => "%Y.%m.%d" )); I tried "%b %m, %Y" with no luck. Thanks for the help.
