DateConvert

Converts dates to a different date format.

If you specify the Date parameter only, IDOL Content Component converts a date in one of the standard date formats to the AUTNDATE value and a human-readable dd/mm/yyyy date string.

If you specify both Date and DateFormat, IDOL Content Component converts the specified date string to its AUTNDATE value and a human-readable date string in the DateFormat that you specify.

action=DateConvert&Date=10/05/1234&DateFormat=DD/MM/YYYY
