“Yesterday I found out that there is a problem/bug using the XSLT ddwrt:DateFormat function. The problem/bug occurs when the regional settings is not set to English (United States).
When a day got the value between 1 and 12, the ddwrt:DateFormat function will recognize this as the month. The month value will be used as the day.
So if the day value is less than 13, you get the following problem:
| US Date Format | ddwrt:DateFormatTime(date, 1043, ‘dd-MMMM-yyyy’) |
| 8/6/2011 | 8-June-2011 |
| 2/3/2011 | 2-March-2011 |
When the day value is larger than 13, you get the correct formatting:
So if the day value is less than 13, you get the following problem:
| US Date Format | ddwrt:DateFormatTime(date, 1043, ‘dd-MMMM-yyyy’) |
| 8/19/2011 | 19-August-2011 |
| 2/30/2011 | 30-February-2011 |
I did not notice it in the beginning, because my settings are always set to English (United States) on my development server. When I implemented the XSLT stylesheet on a different environment, where the regional settings were set to Dutch (Belgium), some of dates were incorrectly formatted. ”
