Date format

[Tony WONG]

Both server (iis6) and my workstation (VS2008) set short date format
2009/12/22 at control panel (region)

But the aspx page at server shows 22/12/2009

The aspx page at my workstation shows 2009/12/22

How to make them same? Thanks.

The datetime format depends on current culture of the application.

In the web.config file add

<system.web>
<globalization culture="en-CA" uiCulture="en-CA" />
</system.web>

This assumes that your current culture will format the date as dd/MM/
yyyy (Canada)
