I noticed this too. Allen, this should probably be included in your date utility. Awesome date utility, by the way!

Thanks Stephen, I've put this on the bug tracker as a feature addition. I'll add it to the next revision.

I also noticed a small typo:
W - month as a full word e.g. Monday, Tuesday
Surely it must be:
W - day as a full word e.g. Monday, Tuesday

I have also noticed that January was spelt wrong.

When trying to format dates with the Date Time utility, I found that there was a missing format for day. So, I've added an additional format for days in digits with no leading zero and no suffix:
The
date-controllertemplate needs the following added:<xsl:when test="$tletter = 'x'"> <xsl:call-template name="format-day"> <xsl:with-param name="date" select="$date"/> <xsl:with-param name="format" select="$letter"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when>And the
format-daytemplate needs to look like this:<xsl:template name="format-day"> <xsl:param name="date"/> <xsl:param name="day" select="format-number(substring($date,9,2),'00')"/> <xsl:param name="format" select="'x'"/> <xsl:param name="suffix"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="(substring($day,2) = 1) and not(substring($day,1,1) = 1)">st</xsl:when> <xsl:when test="(substring($day,2) = 2) and not(substring($day,1,1) = 1)">nd</xsl:when> <xsl:when test="(substring($day,2) = 3) and not(substring($day,1,1) = 1)">Rd</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>th</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$format = 'd'"> <xsl:value-of select="$day"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$format = 'x'"> <xsl:value-of select="format-number($day,'0')"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$format = 'D'"> <xsl:value-of select="format-number($day,'0')"/> <sup><xsl:value-of select="$suffix"/></sup> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template>
