Pretty much the only person you're going to hear from on XSL is Nick and I know he's been out of the office dealing with non-work related stuff.

i try to make a new date base on dateDisplay with this
http://www.exslt.org/date/functions/time/index.html

there is an xml file for MSXML, sadly, include is not accepted by FD

$INCLUDE(date.msxsl.xsl)$

=> FD refuses to load styles

else, i get the following code (not tested)

[p]

<xsl:template name="check-date">
<xsl:param name="text"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="contains($text, 'today')">
<xsl:call-template name="date:time">
<xsl:with-param name="date-time" select="dd-mm-yyyy" />
</xsl:call-template>
<xsl:value-of select="substring-after($text, 'today')"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>

<xsl:value-of select="$text"/>

<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="contains($text, 'yesterday')">

<xsl:call-template name="date:add-duration">
<xsl:with-param name="duration1" select="string" />
<xsl:with-param name="duration2" select="string" />
</xsl:call-template>
<xsl:value-of select="substring-after($text, 'yesterday')"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="$text"/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>

</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Not unless you want to parse <pubDate>, no.

no intermediate solution ?
dateDisplay returns a correct date except for the last week (today & co)

The 'dateDisplay' value is determined by FeedDemon. It's a string which is set to 'Today,' 'Yesterday', 'Monday', 'Last Week', etc., so you can't easily parse it to discover the actual date. You might be able to use the <pubDate> element, though, since it's output in RFC822 format.

the only used code i found in others stylesheets is:
<xsl:value-of select="dateDisplay"/>

but where is it defined ?

thanks
