Hi Guys,

I am using the date format LC3 (DATE_FORMAT_LC3="d. F Y") but I want to add some more css to that, therefore I need to put the day into a <span> or a <div> element because I want to apply a different css formation than to the rest.

Does someone know how I can put single elements of the date format into a div or a span?

Not a div, they're for blocks, spans are for inline elements.
Well, without knowing exactly where you're doing this - just wrap it with <span class="myclass"> ... </span>, then add ".myclass span {what:ever;}" to a stylesheet.

Hi,
thank you for your reply.

I wasnt very detailed while explaining the topic. Sorry for that.

I actually want to add a different css to the day, a different css to the month end so forth. But right now it is only possible to format the whole thing since the format is defined like this LC3 (DATE_FORMAT_LC3="d. F Y")

I'm not sure where you get this LC3 date thingy from, but if it's with PHP then say
you have a variable $date of the form "29 February 2012" -
use $date_parts = explode(" ", $date);
and then echo "<span class='d'>$date_parts[0]</span><span class='m'> $date_parts[1]</span> <span class='y'> $date_parts[2]</span>";
or instead of class just use individual style=".."

Or am I missing the point?

Thank you

If you change this here:

Code:
<?php echo JText::sprintf('COM_CONTENT_CREATED_DATE_ON', JHtml::_('date', $this->item->created, JText::_('DATE_FORMAT_LC2'))); ?>


Into this here:

Code:
<div class="date">
<h5 class="day"><?php echo JHtml::_('date',$this->item->created, 'd'); ?></h5><h5 class="month"><?php echo JHtml::_('date',$this->item->created, 'M'); ?></h5>
</div>


And in the css file you can use
Code:
.date{}
h5.day{}
h5.month{}


To style the day and month individually.

Great! This seems to be a little more elegant solution ;)

Thank you!
