How can we format the date in xslt ?
Example:
<xsl:value-of select ="name of function(I/P, 'MMM dd, yyyy')"/>2 Answers
If you are using XSLT 1.0, you might find the date formatting features in EXSLT - Date and Times useful, in particular format-date. If you are using XSLT 2.0, you can use the built-in function described in Formatting Dates and Times.
As en example of the latter, if you want to output a date on the format "Jan 01, 2020", you'd write
<xsl:value-of select="format-date($d, '[MNn,*-3] [D01], [Y0001]')"/>This will probably help: ms:format-date Function
Using the example from the article you can format a date as follows:
1Date Unedited: 2000-02-16T15:56:00
Date Edited: Feb 16, 2000
