Doesn't match up // perfectly with SimpleDateFormat formats, but // backwards-compatability was required. // ------------------------------------------------------------------ // These functions use the same 'format' strings as the // java.text.SimpleDateFormat class, with minor exceptions. // The format string consists of the following abbreviations: // // Field | Full Form | Short Form // -------------+--------------------+----------------------- // Year | yyyy (4 digits) | yy (2 digits), y (2 or 4 digits) // Month | MMM (name or abbr.)| MM (2 digits), M (1 or 2 digits) // | NNN (abbr.) | // Day of Month | dd (2 digits) | d (1 or 2 digits) // Day of Week | EE (name) | E (abbr) // Hour (1-12) | hh (2 digits) | h (1 or 2 digits) // Hour (0-23) | HH (2 digits) | H (1 or 2 digits) // Hour (0-11) | KK (2 digits) | K (1 or 2 digits) // Hour (1-24) | kk (2 digits) | k (1 or 2 digits) // Minute | mm (2 digits) | m (1 or 2 digits) // Second | ss (2 digits) | s (1 or 2 digits) // AM/PM | a | // // NOTE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MM and mm! Month=MM, not mm! // Examples: // "MMM d, y" matches: January 01, 2000 // Dec 1, 1900 // Nov 20, 00 // "M/d/yy" matches: 01/20/00 // 9/2/00 // "MMM dd, yyyy hh:mm:ssa" matches: "January 01, 2000 12:30:45AM" // ------------------------------------------------------------------ var MONTH_NAMES=new Array('January','February','March','April','May','June','July','August','September','October','November','December','Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'); var DAY_NAMES=new Array('Sunday','Monday','Tuesday','Wednesday','Thursday','Friday','Saturday','Sun','Mon','Tue','Wed','Thu','Fri','Sat'); function LZ(x) {return(x<0||x>9?"":"0")+x} // ------------------------------------------------------------------ // isDate ( date_string, format_string ) // Returns true if date string matches format of format string and // is a valid date.
