date format

I have virtual directory where I run test.asp page with only this code
inside:
<%Response.Write now()%>

As a result, if I go into the IE and browse for the test.asp page, I get :
1/22/2004 14:18:04

If I copy this page on some other(existing) virtual directory, I get as a
result
22.1.2004 14:19:06

If I create a new virtual directory and I copy the page there, I get :
1/22/2004 14:18:04

Seems like that IIS takes english date format even if my regional setting is
:
d.M.yyyy and I would like that date on the page is always like this:
22.1.2004 14:19:06

Where I can change this setting?
Is there some bug in IIS?

Thank you,
Simon

This site has a couple more articles devoted to formatting dates so you
should use the Search tool to find them.

hi, thank you for your link, I read all about it.

If I use: session.LCID=1060 (which is Slovenian lcid) I still get the
american or similar format (mm/dd/yyyy).

If I use session.LCID=1031 (which is German) than the date is changed
(dd.mm.yyyy).

It somehowe takes that the slovenian format is like english. Why?

I looked at registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International

and all settings are ok, they are slovenian like they should be.

And in windows everything is fine, only on the asp page is wrong format.

So, where could be the problem?

Thank you,
Simon

Obviously, someone messed up your regional settings. So, instead of relying
on them, format your dates manually.

(Or, show them in an unambiguous format, e.g. yyyy-mm-dd)

To make a variable be in the format of yyyy-mm-dd (and the final line of
code can be modifed for other date formats), perhaps try something like
the following which you might even make into a function:

varFld = CDate(MyVariable)

intMonth = Month(varFld)
intDay = Day(varFld)
intYr = Year(varFld)

If intMonth < 10 Then
strMonth = "0" & CStr(intMonth)
Else
strMonth = CStr(intMonth)
End If

If intDay < 10 Then
strDay = "0" & CStr(intDay)
Else
strDay = CStr(intDay)
End If

varFld = CStr(intYr & "-" & strMonth & "-" & strDay)
