Date in ASP

[LaPluma]

Hello

I understand that this date statement Response.Write(Month(Date) & "/" & Day(Date) & "/" & Year(Date)) will produce
the date in this order:

12/4/98

To me, this is the 12th April 98 and I don't know anybody who would think otherwise.

How can I amend this so that the date reads: 12th April 1998? That is, with the th (third), st (first), and nd (second) and in that order (that is: day then month, then year)? I would also like the year to be in full: 1998 and not 98.

Finally, is there a way of setting the font, and style, and colour?

Many thanks to all.

Best wishes.

<script language=&quot;vbscript&quot;>
sub formatDate()

DateToday = MonthName(Month(date())) & &quot;, &quot; & Day(Date()) & &quot;, &quot; & Year(Date())


alert DateToday
end sub I may not get it the 1st or 2nd time,
but how sweet that 15th time can be.

Sorry didn't clarify this. just change to the famous <% %> etc.

in regords to setting the color etc. jsut response.write the settings before you write the date and it will take effect.
response.write(&quot;<FONT FACE=COURIER&quot
response.write(&quot;SIZE=12pt&quot and so on until
response.write(DateToday) I may not get it the 1st or 2nd time,
but how sweet that 15th time can be.
