[FLOW3-general] DateTime format in my view

Thu Jan 3 13:04:08 CET 2013

I finally got it, David! :)

If it useful for anybody: "property" in <f:form.textfield> overwrites
"value" and "name". But you can overwrite "value" too. The problem I had is
I should have used the entire object for overwritting the format date in
the inline notation, not only the property like I used in the "property"
field. I mean:

<f:form.textfield property="break.date" id="start" class="two timepicker"
value="{workingDay.break.date -> f:format.date(format:'H:i')}" />

where {workingDay} is my main object.
