[alexfusion]

Hello everybody:
This is a simple question:
I would like how to get the date and time from the system so I can show it to an intranet user.
Besides I have to enter date and time into the a table record as a field of the record.
Many thanks!

now()

has todays date and time.

So
<CFOUTPUT>#Dateformat(NOW(),&quot;DD/MM/YYYY&quot#</CFOUTPUT>
will output the Date and
<CFOUTPUT>#Timeformat(NOW(),&quot;hh:mm:ss&quot#</CFOUTPUT>
will output the Time.

you should look up what the options are for Date and Time formatting because you really have a lot of control there.

For instance on the Date &quot;DDD MMMM DD, YYYY&quot; will output as &quot;Fri June 01, 2001&quot;

Hope it Helps.
