carl miltonSubject: generate the date time in xslt (mapper mode)
Author: carl milton
Date: 12 Nov 2007 10:52 AM
hello,

i have an element date in my target document as follows:

<date>2006-10-26 15:31:51</date>

i want to generate the date time automatically everytime i map another source document because not all of my source documents have the correct date or format and this is creating me problems. i want the format to be like this:

<date>yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss</date>

i have seen a few site that suggest calling a java file but is there an easier way that this can be done in stylus studio?

if you are working with an XSLT 1.0 processor take a look at http://www.exslt.org/date/index.html as an alternative to a java function.

if you can use an XSLT 2.0 processor (e.g. Saxon) you can take advantage of the 2.0 dateTime functionality, for example:

<date>
<xsl:value-of select="format-dateTime(current-dateTime(),'[Y0001]-[M01]-[D01] [H02]:[m02]:[s02]')"/>
</date>
