I'm using the MX DateField control in Flex and want to display the date as 01 Jul 2011 or 01 July 2011. Does anyone know how to do this? I tried setting the formatString to "D开发者_如何学运维D MMM YYYY" but it didn't work.
This works:
<fx:Declarations>
<mx:DateFormatter id="myDf" formatString="DD MMM YYYY"/>
</fx:Declarations>
<fx:Script>
<![CDATA[
private function formatDate(date:Date):String{
return myDf.format(date);
}
]]>
</fx:Script>
<mx:DateField id="dateField" labelFunction="formatDate" />
Found it in the LiveDocs at http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=controls_12.html
However this does not explain why the formatString property on the component does not work properly. I can confirm that it does not work as expected.
Cheers
I would use something like this:
<mx DateField id = "dateField"
dayNames ="["S", "M", "T", "W", "T", "F", "S"]"
monthNames="["January", "February", "March", "April", "May",
"June", "July", "August", "September", "October",
"November", "December"]" />
Since you mentioned 3 character month names, this is a good example. If you don't need the day names, of course, remove that line.
<mx DateField id = "dateField"
dayNames ="["S", "M", "T", "W", "T", "F", "S"]"
monthNames="["Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May",
"Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct",
"Nov", "Dec"]"
formatString = "DD MMM YYY" />
Hope this helps.
