Show Date

If you want to show the current date at your Typo3 site, you will need a marker in the HTML code (e.g. ###DATE###) and the following Typoscript code:

marks.DATE = COA
marks.DATE {
10 = TEXT
10.data = date:U
10.strftime = %A, %e. %B %Y
}

or for the graphical display:

marks.DATE = IMAGE
marks.DATE.file = GIFBUILDER
marks.DATE.file {
reduceColors = 8
XY = 150, 20
backColor = {$color1}
10 = TEXT
10.text.data = date:U
10.text.strftime = %A, %e. %B %Y
10.fontSize = 8
10.fontColor = {$color2}
10.offset = -1, 13
10.align = right
10.fontFile = t3lib/fonts/verdana.ttf
10.niceText = 1
}

$color1 and $color2 are constants for the color of the text.
