it says 07.00 pm

No it doesn't..have a look again.

[right][snapback]208158[/snapback][/right][/quote]

you are right it says 07.04 pm now

this could go on for a while me thinks

I think we'll stop there and hope that a Mod/or Admin takes notice.

i'm lost, i dont get it

but pete no one can see what your problem is

if it was 12 hours out it would read 07.00 am

very suspect indeed!

I think I will have another STELLA maybe that will help

looks OK to me

If its 12 hrs out (like it is) it would say 19:30 which in the 24 hr clock would be just 7:30 and not O7:30,which indicates morning time.

It just annoys me

I know it says PM but a zero start time is pre afternoon (morning to you lot)

Ask anyone that uses 24hr clock.

Did you see one of those reality programmes about parking in London?

One of the traffic wardens put 01:30pm on the parking ticket. It got squashed.

The AM or PM is indicative only and it goes purely by the number in legal terms apparently.

who cares, as pete said, its only a ruse to get his post count up

I care...Mr Clawley

You of all people know an "0" b4 a number(in time zones) = morning.

if using the Military time system, yes, but then the time would also include Zulu time

e.g 0700Z +1 and as well as the time it would be written as a DTG 1202051802z

so really the forums use of 0 then PM doesnt really bother me, as i understand its just the forum software that has to fill a 4 digit time

Other car forums are o.k so it must be a software issue.

its not a software issue at all - its a configuration issue.

the forum use the php date function - I can adjust the code to make it read pretty much anything I want.

How about Swatch Internet Time?

Dates with or with the ordinal suffix?

How about strict [url="http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2822"]RFC 2822 conformity?[/url]


Thing is - it does not matter.

Everyone can tell what time and date posts were made - and this post is damn near trolling.
