[vtp-dev] Re: date/time format in input view

[Brent D Metz <bdmetz@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I misunderstood you earlier -- seconds
should definitely be there! That's a defect and I just fixed it in CVS
to HH:mm:ss.SSS. 

This seems, in general, to be a design
choice between letting browsers send time data as a String or forcing them
to create Date objects and providing an ability to customize the display
of that object. That customization could be programmatic on the view or
in a preference page. Does anyone have any opinions on the matter they'd
like to share?

Brent –
 
I really, really, really would like to see
the format for the date-time in the log view table be changed to "HH:mm:ss"

 
If you really want to see milliseconds, then
“HH:mm:ss.SSS” would be OK. The format in there now does not show seconds
at all, and I think folks are more accustomed to time in 00-23 hours than
01-24 hours.
 
Or barring that, how about a setFormat()
method that would let the implementer set his own format?
