jquery.strftime is a JQuery plugin that implements a limited strftime() function. This function can be directly applied to HTML elements or called from inside JavaScript code. The plugin has limited support for internationalization; while no direct way of specifying a locale exists, it is possible to modify the strings used by the plugin for month names and day names, as well as the default format.
HI,
i wish to convert a millsec value to a readable string format.
the one option is to use strftime.
However this is a bit costly (1-5 micros).
is there a a faster way to do so with just string manipulation
(Note i have the date object which has the time details but wish o avoid strftime) (2 Replies)
Hi Everyone
i have a perl file below, one of the line is convert the pcho time to human readable format.
$value=`awk 'BEGIN{print strftime("%c",1273236600)}' | tr -d '\n'`;
if image, if i have lots of pcho time value in a file, if i use this awk, strftime, then tr -d to remove the \n,... (2 Replies)
Strange behaviour of the strftime() function from gawk (3.1.5):
$ awk 'BEGIN{print strftime("%T", 3600)}'
> 02:00:00
$ awk 'BEGIN{print strftime("%T", 0)}'
> 01:00:00
Obviously something with DST but I can not figure out why? To me 3600 epoch seconds remains 01:00, DST or not.

GMSTRFTIME(3) 1 GMSTRFTIME(3)gmstrftime - Format a GMT/UTC time/date according to locale settings
SYNOPSIS
string gmstrftime (string $format, [int $timestamp = time()])
DESCRIPTION
Behaves the same as strftime(3) except that the time returned is Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). For example, when run in Eastern Standard Time
(GMT -0500), the first line below prints "Dec 31 1998 20:00:00", while the second prints "Jan 01 1999 01:00:00".
PARAMETERS
o $format
- See description in strftime(3).
o $timestamp
- The optional $timestamp parameter is an integer Unix timestamp that defaults to the current local time if a $timestamp is not
given. In other words, it defaults to the value of time(3).
RETURN VALUES
Returns a string formatted according to the given format string using the given $timestamp or the current local time if no timestamp is
given. Month and weekday names and other language dependent strings respect the current locale set with setlocale(3).
EXAMPLES
Example #1
gmstrftime(3) example
<?php
setlocale(LC_TIME, 'en_US');
echo strftime("%b %d %Y %H:%M:%S", mktime(20, 0, 0, 12, 31, 98)) . "
";
echo gmstrftime("%b %d %Y %H:%M:%S", mktime(20, 0, 0, 12, 31, 98)) . "
";
?>
