Hi!
I just checked out my own preferences page, and noticed that my registration date at diyaudio is going to be the first of September this year :) :) :) :) :)
:cloud9: This is something I always wanted to do: Living in the future! Learn about my future wife (errr make that girlfriend... ;) ), about my career opportunities, about the Lotto numbers...
:bulb: Oh, I just noticed... maybe it's just an error in the message board scripts... :bawling: no future for me...
That just about ruined my evening! Going drown my sorrows now...
:drink: :drink: :drink: :drink:
G' night...

I think the forums uses another date format:
MM/D/YYYY instead of what we are used to: D/MM/YYYY
You swapped the month and the day.;) :cool:
/Hugo - anything better than living in the past...:nod: |

Australia and the rest of the world mostly use day-month-year (DDMMYY).
So why does the forum use the US format? |

Must be US-software or settings.

I have seen some Japanese stuff that uses YYYYMMDD. e.g 2003/05/17 19:46:27 including time. MSB to LSB just like ordinary numbers. Much better idea I think.
/Circlotron - lives in land of 240v 50Hz, right-hand-drive cars, and lotsa diyers. |

YYMMDD is the standard Japanese format for western dates. :)

| Yes it's US software .. I was recently thinking of given each user the option to change to the Australian format .... maybe if I get some time this week I might do it. |

It's just more evidence of the monolithic, imperilistic American's domination of the world. Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated. :D

Thats aggravating, when you preview the post the attachment gets cleared. I guess this world domination thing is a little more complicated than it looks. |

Considering the Brits now have half the world speaking their language, I would think they would be the last to complain about having to do something the other guy's way. ;) |

Kelticwizard,
It wasn't a complaint:goodbad: Merely a quiery. It caused me no trouble - I'm quite used to internet forms that insist on me entering my zip code to do anything, and insisting on a middle initial, of which I have none:cannotbe: It's the way of the world :clown:
Happy domination ;) |
