    How to use ToString("dd-MM-yyyy")

    Hello

    How do I use ToString in the code below (should be used on the "date")?

    <div class="blog-content">
        <div class="title">
            <span>@news.GetProperty("date").Value</span>
            <h2><a href="single-post.html"></a>@news.GetProperty("headline").Value</h2>
        </div>
        <p>@news.GetProperty("description").Value</p>
    </div>


    I have tried this with no luck:

    <div class="blog-content">
        <div class="title">
            <span>@news.GetProperty("date").Value</span>
            <h2><a href="single-post.html"></a>@news.GetProperty("headline").Value.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy")</h2>
        </div>
        <p>@news.GetProperty("description").Value</p>
    </div>

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi René

    Isn't it the wrong property you are trying to format? I guess the property "headline" isn't a datetime..?

    Try with the date property:

    <div class="blog-content">
    <div class="title">
        <span>@news.GetProperty("date").Value.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy")</span>
        <h2><a href="single-post.html"></a>@news.GetProperty("headline").Value</h2>
    </div>
    <p>@news.GetProperty("description").Value</p>
</div>

    Hi Dennis

    Thanks!

    I solved the problem with some minor changes in the code see below:

    <divclass="blog-content">
            <divclass="title">
                <span>@news.date.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy")</span>
                <h2><ahref="single-post.html"></a>@news.headline</h2>
            </div>
            <p>@news.description</p>
    </div>

    Hi Bjarne

    Sorry I made some changes from my original code before i posted it here and by i mistake I put in the ToString command the wrong place.

    Hi René

    I'm glad you solved it.. please mark the right answer as solution :)

    Perhaps this is just a typing mistake, but I think you want to wrap anchor tag around the news headline?

    Then it should be:

    <div class="blog-content">
    <div class="title">
        <span>@news.date.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy")</span>
        <h2><a href="single-post.html">@news.headline</a></h2>
    </div>
    <p>@news.description</p>
</div>
